Family, friends, and nearly a hundred other members of the community on Wednesday bid a tearful final goodbye to Nithin Chandran, the 28-year-old Indian who died in his sleep on June 7 in Dubai.
Chandran and his then-pregnant wife Athira Geetha Sreedharan recently rose to prominence after the couple filed a repatriation petition with India's highest court amid the Covid-19 lockdown. Athira flew home from Dubai to Kozhikode on May 7, aboard the first flight under the Vande Bharat Mission, India's record repatriation exercise.
Scores of people turned up at Chandran's family home in Perambara, Kozhikode, on Wednesday to pay their final respects. Chandran's body was repatriated from Sharjah to Kochi at 11.30pm on Tuesday on a charter flight. The funeral, as per Hindu customs, were completed by 1.30pm UAE time on Wednesday, according to his close friend Bibin Jacob.
