A six-year-old Filipina girl, who was given up by her real mother in Dubai when she was just a year old, is now caught in a difficult situation. The couple that cared for Fathima for the past five years has handed her over to a friend, a Pakistani national, in UAE in December 2018 after they fell on hard times.
According to a video shared by Gulf News, Fathima is currently with the 34-year-old Pakistani resident, Syed Ali Moazzam, who cannot adopt her, or for that matter get her admitted in a school, as she has no valid documents.
