A call from Jail’s Yemen was received from Jearm, a call from the chairman of the jail, which was informed that the order of hanging has been passed. Nimisha Priya has also been officially given information about this.
Option is still open

The family of the Yemeni citizen was offered a million dollars and money is also being raised with the help of a sponsor.

Who is Nimisha
Nimisha Priya Priya from Kerala went to Yemen in 2011 after completing the Nursing Training Course. It is being told that she went there to give a good life to her parents. His parents were daily wage laborers. Initially, he worked day and night in many hospitals in Yemen. After this, he decided to open his own clinic. She came in contact with Talal Abdo Mahdi in 2014. Talal promised Nimisha to help her in starting a clinic in Yemen. Nimisha felt that now her dream could be true.
What is the whole matter
Under the trade law in Yemen, any person who is not a citizen of that country has to partner with a local person to start a business in the country. Nimisha shared partnership to open the clinic according to the laws and agreed to the conditions. Nimisha started her clinic with Mahdi in the year 2015. But soon differences arose between them. He accused Mahdi of abuse and torture. It is being told that Mahdi had also taken his passport so that he could not go out of Yemen.
Nimisha wanted passport
Nimisha lodged a police complaint against Mahdi and was arrested in 2016. But according to some reports, he was released a few days later. In the year 2017, this dispute reached a new turn. Desperate to get his passport back and go back to India, Nimisha enlisted the help of a local jail warden, who suggested the use of sedatives to disable Mahdi.
Overdose died
Assuming the suggestion of that wardon, Nimisha injected her sedatives in the trumpes to take her passport from her possession. He died of overdose due to which Nimisha was arrested and convicted in the case. According to a media report, Nimisha’s mother Prema Kumari reached Sana, the capital of Yemen earlier this year. She stayed there to forgive the death penalty and talk on blood money with the victim’s family.
