“Although I had the forensic evidence of the beatings and everything, they believed him,” Paola Schietekat said about the incident, which has made international headlines.
MEXICO CITY — Paola Schietekat longs to return to the Middle East, where she loved working — until a dream job in Qatar was followed by a nightmarish ordeal that made her flee the country.
“I couldn’t believe what had happened to me,” Schietekat told Noticias Telemundo, recounting the ordeal that has made international headlines.
Schietekat, who loves soccer, was working in Qatar for the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy, an entity created by the country ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which will take place there in November.
In June, Schietekat, who’s an economist, said she was assaulted in a violent incident by an acquaintance and fellow Latino who also worked in Qatar.
