A woman discovered that someone had been taking her salary for 14 years without her knowledge in Saudi Arabia.
The woman - who issued wages at a kindergarten in Makkah, had worked for two years and then resigned to continue her education and pursue a masters degree in 2001.   
Although the woman attempted to apply for a teaching position with the ministry, the system kept rejecting her, as reported by Okaz newspaper.
12 years later, she discovered that her name was registered with the ministry and someone had been taking her salary for 14 years. 
Nothing is known as of yet on the identity of the person who received the money in her stead.      
She called on authorities to compensate her for the years she was denied employment because of the person taking her identity.
