After nearly two decades of hardship in Bahrain, Mr. Iyyappan Murugaiyyan, an Indian national, has been successfully repatriated to India.
Stranded since 2004 without valid documents and under a travel ban since 2006, Mr. Murugaiyyan faced severe health issues, including complications from diabetes that led to the amputation of two toes. His case remained dormant until revived by the coordinated efforts of the Pravasi Legal Cell (PLC) Bahrain Chapter, in collaboration with the Indian Embassy and various well-wishers.
An Emergency Certificate was issued by the Embassy of India, and following several legal proceedings, the travel ban was lifted.
His repatriation was facilitated with medical support and an accompanying person.
Special thanks were extended to the Government of Bahrain, judicial authorities, Salmaniya Medical Complex, and Al Hilal Hospital for their compassionate assistance.
