Indian Man Dies Flying Home
TDT I Manama
A 27-year-old Indian expatriate from Kerala tragically died on board a flight from Bahrain to Kozhikode on Tuesday after reportedly falling ill mid-air while travelling home for medical treatment.
Muhammad Afsal, a native of Punnathala in Malappuram district, had boarded the flight earlier in the day. During the journey, he experienced discomfort, and after landing at Calicut International Airport, he was rushed to a nearby private hospital. Despite efforts by medical staff, he was declared dead shortly after arrival.
Afsal had moved to Bahrain just two months ago and was working at a cold storage facility. According to sources close to the family, he had been suffer- ing from fever for several days prior to the trip and had visited a private clinic for consultation.
Concerned over his health not improving, Afsal reportedly decided to return home for further medical care. It was during this journey that his condition deteriorated.
The sudden passing has left his family and the local expatriate community in deep grief. Funeral arrangements are under way in his hometown.
