RIP,,,,, Condolences to the family....sad incident

My heartfelt condolences for the family, indeed it is a very sad news unfortunately life and death is not in our hand. At least he was safe in Gulf Country, people should think about the safety of our stupid and uncultured India before commenting about other countries.

Very Sad!

Heartfelt Condolence to the Family
