Saudi Bus Accident: Relative Deported, Final Rites Delayed
After a bus accident in Saudi Arabia, a relative of the survivor was sent back home because of an old case.
The bodies of the other victims are still in Saudi Arabia, and their final rites will happen later than expected.
The process is taking time because of some checks and paperwork.
A relative of the lone survivor of the Umrah bus accident was deported from Saudi Arabia due to a previous dispute with his employer.
The deported relative, Sheik Ibrahim Ahmed, was in Saudi Arabia for the funeral of the survivor's parents who died in the accident.
The final rites of the accident victims are expected to be performed on Saturday in Medina, Saudi Arabia.
The burial process was delayed due to pending DNA identification of the victims and formalities.
Insurance claims for the victims are yet to be processed.
