Karantina is an area in southern Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. [1]
Karantina is considered to be a slum with illegal immigrants and criminal activity. [1] [2] [3] Many African expatriates who illegally entered Saudi Arabia and lower-income Saudis live in Karantina. [4] [5] John R. Bradley, author of Saudi Arabia Exposed: Inside a Kingdom in Crisis, described Kerantina as "a melting pot of colors, cultures, and languages." [6]
Around 2005 illegal substances were sold in Karantina in the streets at all times. Women buy and sell the substances. Bradley stated that this was unusual behavior in a country where trafficking drugs has the death penalty. A government official stated that, as of 2005, each week he received up to seven cases of AIDS in Karantina. [6]
