Bizarre development in intriguing suspicious deaths of two Saudi sisters as cops now claim the family is REFUSING to help them - after revelations they denounced Islam and fled to Australia with $5,000
- Asra Abdullah Alsehli, 24, and Amaal Abdullah Alsehli, 23, were asylum seekers
- They jumped on a plane from Saudi Arabia to Sydney, via Hong Kong, with $5k
- Five years after arriving in Sydney, they were found dead in their unit in June
- Police originally insisted family were cooperating with ongoing investigation
- Family reportedly refused permission for police to release photos and names
- Police confirmed women's identities were released in consultation with coroner
Police believe the two young women, found in separate beds, may have been dead for a month before officers made the grim discovery while conducting a welfare check.
There were no signs of forced entry, no clear signs of injury, and the cause of death remains undetermined.
For weeks, NSW Police assured media the sisters 'well-connected' family in the Saudi kingdom were 'cooperating' and 'helping' with the investigation.
It's also been revealed the sisters were both seeking protection from the Australian government as more details about their attempts to build a normal life here emerged.
They had an active claim for asylum in progress with the Department of Home Affairs, it has been confirmed.
