Sripada Naresh, a migrant worker from Telangana, died in Bahrain in 2020 but remained unclaimed in a morgue for five years due to identity mismatches and family disputes. His wife, unaware of his death, accused his family of bigamy. Only recently did Bahrain authorities reveal the unclaimed bodies, prompting Naresh’s elder brother to travel and perform the last rites, bringing long-awaited closure.
The family of Sreepada Naresh, a migrant worker from Metpally whose body has remained unclaimed in Bahrain for five years, has urged the Telangana government to intervene and repatriate his remains. A petition was submitted during the CM Pravasi Prajavani programme in Hyderabad.
