A 43-YEAR-OLD man working as a trolley driver in Riyadh city of Saudi Arabia and hailing from Moga has threatened to commit suicide if not “rescued.” In a video that went viral on Tuesday on social media, Kewal Singh, 43, has alleged that he along with his son Laxman Singh (23) are stuck in Saudi Arabia. He has also alleged that his employer was not paying his pending salary and had even confiscated his passport. Later, speaking to The Indian Express over phone from Saudi Arabia, Kewal Singh said, “For nine years, I have been working as a driver in Riyadh. My employers owes 35,000 Riyal (Rs 6 lakh) of pending salary to me which he is not ready to pay now. My father will commit suicide if help does not reach them soon,” said Jasvir, who too had gone to Saudi Arabia in February last year with medicines for his father.
