Hyderabad: Claiming that her husband has been imprisoned by Saudi Arabian authorities on false allegations of theft, Hyderabad resident Salam Begum has sought assistance from External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj.
"My husband Syed Asif went to Saudi Arabia on January 19, 2016 through an agent here in Hyderabad. He was promised 1800 Saudi Riyal as salary but was paid only 1200 Saudi Riyal. He was working as a driver there," she said.
"Even after working for two years, my husband's employer did not sanction him leave to come back to India. He was not allowed to come even when my mother-in-law expired," she added.
