What happened to the Eastleigh sisters?

Initial reports indicate that the girls, Amina and Swaiba, left home looking for their mother, who went to the hospital that day but had not yet returned home.

The sisters, aged 11 and 22, left home at 11:30pm in the hope of finding their beloved mother, who they thought was still receiving skin treatments.

“Our aunt Waris said she was going to undergo a skin examination at the BBS mall. She left at 2:30 in the morning, and when it was 5 in the morning, the sisters called her, where she assured them that she was on her way,” Sumeya Noor, a relative of the family, explained.

As time went by, the girls decided to go looking for him, but met their death suddenly. CCTV video recorded the two making phone calls at the mall before exiting and getting into the car.
