Transgender woman from Harlow had left Saudi Arabia – inquest
The coroner heard she had been in a foster placement initially before moving to supported accommodation on the 14th floor of Terminus House, a tower block in the middle of Harlow.
In a statement read to the court, Dr Imran Parwes GP, said she had requested to start hormone treatment “to begin the process of having a feminine body” in October 2022.
She told the doctor her family would not accept her trans identity and had sent them a WhatsApp message when she arrived in the UK before deleting the app.
Her family were made aware of the inquest but did not attend, Mr Brookes said.
The coroner also said Ms Alraabeah, a student at Harlow College, had not requested a gender recognition certificate, but “had chosen a female lifestyle and the pronouns she/her”, which he added was “being respected by those who worked with her”.
