Indian returns from Saudi after embassy secures exit ban waiver

Shavej Hamid had been hospitalised for four months in Saudi Arabia following an accident. “Despite facing an exit ban due to substantial dues, the Embassy’s intervention ensured that most of these were waived, and we also facilitated the payment of his government fines,” the embassy said in a post on X.
