Lakhimpur-Kheri,
who hails from Lakhimpur-Kheri, Uttar Pradesh, will stand tall after hearing what happened to Latif in the name of a job abroad. The son of Rafiq, a resident of Mirpur, Sadar Kotwali, went to Saudi Arabia on 31 October 2019 in the hope of employment. After 2-3 months, he left his job and canceled the visa and put him in jail. The family has been crying bitterly for the past 14 months, but there is no hope of the son’s return to his homeland.
Latif’s father is alleged to have been in ‘possession’ of the embassy. When the
media spoke to the son Latif’s father Rafiq , he became emotional while talking. He made a shocking disclosure that his son is now in the ‘possession’ of the Indian High Commission, not the Saudi government, but he is not sending it. Rafiq said, ‘The son was returned to his phone 2-3 months ago and the video call is talked about. Embassy officials have kept him somewhere. No one is telling why he is not sending it. The son is often weeping over a video call. He is constantly saying that what is his fault should be told to him, if any document is less, he will complete it. But the embassy officials threaten to send him back to Saudi jail. ‘
How did the situation deteriorate? After leaving the job, Jail
Rafiq told that Haji Javed, a resident of Mohalla Katra of Kheri police station area, sent the son to Saudi with one and a half lakh rupees. He had a driver’s job there. All went well for the 2-3 months since he left in October 2019. Suddenly Corona lost her job. One day it is revealed that his visa has been canceled and the Saudi government jails him.
Everyone comes back, why stop Latif only?
Latif’s father Rafiq further said, “After a few months in jail, he and seven others along with him were handed over to the Indian embassy. 7 of them were sent back to their homeland, but Latif is still there till today. Nothing is known about why the embassy is not sending him. Where we talk to whom to request, we do not know anything.
Javed cheated, cheating on the return of his son,
Rafiq told that 80 thousand rupees , that we talked to the Javed who had sent Latif abroad. He said that he would talk there and it would take 80 thousand rupees to bring him back. We gave away the money, but he also lost 80 thousand rupees and the son did not come back.
The police shouted to Kotwali, said – what is the matter of foreign country, what shall we do?
Rafik wanted to complain to the police about his son being trapped abroad and Javed’s rigging. The police also showed apathy. Rafiq said, ‘We went to Sadar Kotwali on January 4 to complain about Javed. No one listened to us and drove away from outside. When we told about the son being trapped abroad, he clearly said that this is a matter of foreign country, what can we do in this?
Not seeing any hope, people advised to go to Delhi,
Rafiq said while feeling emotional that we do not see any hope of bringing back our son. Some people have advised that we go to Delhi and tell the government there. But we do not know how to go to Delhi and whom to meet there. Someone just give us back our son!
