Sri Lankan Worker’s Charred Body Found in Abha Apartment

Police are investigating the case of a Sri Lankan national whose partially charred body was found in his apartment in the southern city of Abha on Friday.

Mohammed Imtisam Shamsudeen, 28, assistant manager of Home Center in Abha, has been working for Al-Bandar International House for Trading Company for the past four years.

Shamsudeen’s relatives in Sri Lanka said they suspect foul play. “When he called his wife Fathima Feroza three days ago, he told her that he had been receiving death threats from unknown sources,” his father S. Deen told Arab News, speaking from the town of Negombo.

Deen said his son had told his wife that if he were to die in the Kingdom then his last wish would be to be buried in Makkah. “If I had known that this would happen so quickly, I would have asked him to come back for good,” he said.

Shamsudeen is also survived by his one-year-old daughter, Ayesha. Deen said his son visited Sri Lanka two years ago to get married and returned four months ago to see his daughter. During his last visit, Shamsudeen had told his wife that he would take them to the Kingdom.
