The FINANCIAL -- A woman in Saudi Arabia sued a five-star hotel over mosquito bites, a Saudi newspaper reported on February 8.
Al Hayat reported that a court in the city of Jidda started considering the lawsuit Monday as the woman demanded that hotel owners pay her 5 million Saudi riyals ($1.3 million) in damages.
"She claimed that as a result of numerous mosquito bites she had suffered while staying at the hotel she fell ill, started having severe pains and itching, while her skin turned red," RIA Novosti said.
She also said a doctor advised her to undergo a medical examination and start treatment in a hospital.
All attempts by hotel staff to hush up the conflict were to no avail. The woman notified the hotel owners that she is suing them.
