A bitter international fight ensued between the parents, resulting in an Australian judge ruling the sisters must be returned to their father, Daily Mail reported.




Despite staying in hiding, the girls were finally collected by Australian police and security officers last night and driven to Brisbane airport – where passengers stared in shock as the girls screamed and struggled to break away from their escorts.

Up to a dozen federal officers in suits were present as the four sisters were dragged to an airport lounge to await boarding on an Emirates flight, but they were determined not to go without a fight.

All girls cried out to their escorts to let them return to their home in Australia and complained the officers were hurting their arms.  

But the police were determined the girls would be sent home, one officer telling a girl: ‘Now, you're going to get back on the plane.'



Passengers stared at the scenes of the sisters struggling with police, many saying that the incident was ‘awful…terrible.'

The Courier Mail newspaper reported that it had learned the mother of the girls clung in desperation to the rear of an Australian Federal Police car as it drove away with three of the sisters from a house where they had been staying.

She collapsed in the road sobbing at the end of what was described as a day of unfathomable anxiety and stress.
