Airport drama manager flies home

A manager who had to be admitted to the Psychiatric Hospital following a mental breakdown at Bahrain International Airport almost two weeks ago, flew home last night.
The Indian man began showing signs of recovery last week and flew home at 10.30pm after doctors confirmed that he was cured and fit to travel.
He was on transit from Dammam, Saudi Arabia, to Bangalore, India, on August 13 when he started acting strangely, according to sources.
The 24-year-old had worked as a manager for a recruitment agency in Ras Tanura, near Dammam, for more than a year.
He reportedly started showing worrying signs of depression after he was blamed for an accident involving a company car and was asked to pay BD5,700 compensation.
He wouldn't speak to the official at the immigration counter, give his name or other details or budge from the queue, the GDN had reported.
The man was admitted to the Psychiatric Hospital, Salmaniya, on August 15, after continued refusal to board other flights, even after appeals by social workers and his sponsor, who came to Bahrain to resolve the matter.
