Two ageing Saudi women who had vowed to stick together as friends all their life died almost at the same time as if to extend their oath beyond life.
The two women had been seen by residents in their village near the Western Saudi town of Qunfudah together most of the time although they are not related.
“On that day, the two friends had coffee together and one of them later said she was walking over to visit her daughter,” Sabq newspaper said.
“The other woman could not wait and decided to go after her…the first one was later found dead on the way while the second was also found dead just around four metres away…it was a natural death and they were buried at the same time.”
