Union Minister of Civil Aviation Jyotiraditya Scindia has written to Union Minister of External Affairs S. Jaishankar seeking his intervention in bringing home the body of a 24-year-old man from Madhya Pradesh’s Gwalior who had died in China last month, his office said on Wednesday.
In the letter dated December 29, Mr. Scindia, who hails from Gwalior, said that he has received a request from one Surendra Singh Kushwaha, a Gwalior resident, whose son, Prabal Kushwaha had died in China and the family has demanded that his body be brought back.
As per reports, Prabal’s body was found hanging last week. Even though the Chinese authorities have claimed that he took his own life, the victim’s family has alleged foul play.
