Supreme Court refuses to provide relief to Indian stranded in Dubai

  The Supreme Court has refused to grant any relief on the petition of Asif Azad, an Indian national living in Dubai, in which he complained of harassment and travel ban by the Dubai authorities. A bench of Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justice Bagchi directed the petitioner to contact the Indian Embassy.

The matter became quite interesting when Asif Azad, a permanent resident of Kerala and an engineer by profession, presented his case in the court through video conferencing from a shopping mall in Dubai. When the Chief Justice asked about his location, he told that he was in the mall. On this, the Chief Justice asked how far the Indian Embassy was from there? Asif replied that it was about 20 km. On this, the Chief Justice said that go to the Indian Embassy, ​​public transport is available to go there.

Asif Azad claimed before the court that he was framed by the drug mafia and fake cheques were made for him, due to which the Dubai court imposed a travel ban on him.

He alleged that he was being called an illegal immigrant and was beaten up at night, evidence of which is in the CCTV. He appealed for the restoration of Article 21 (right to life), stating that his life was in danger.

He also said that some MLAs of Kerala are against him and the investigation against him in the state is one-sided.

The court expressed its inability to accept Asif's story completely. When the petitioner talked about being against the MLAs of Kerala, the Chief Justice pointed to the political changes (election results) in Kerala and said, "Now you can see on TV that some changes (new government) are happening. So, take advantage of the changed regime."

Finally, the court told Asif that the court could not help him by sitting away like this, he would have to officially approach the Indian Embassy in the UAE so that they could provide him with legal assistance.
