3 Malayalis stuck in Saudi return

Kochi: Three expatriate Malayali workers, who had been languishing in Saudi Arabia for the past few months without job and food, arrived at the Nedumbassery airport here on Tuesday, after the Saudi government issued them exit visas. Kannur-native Shijo Mathew, Muhammad of Malappuram and Shabeer of Chakkumkadavu in Kozhikode arrived by a Saudi Airline flight in the morning.

They had been employees of Saudi Oja company. Speaking to reporters at the airport, they said they were not paid salary since January, and that the company stopped food supply to its labour camps in July due to financial crisis. "Nearly 200 Keralites have been facing a harrowing time in Saudi Arabia, following lay off by their companies after being hit by financial crisis," they said.
