Mohammad Yousuf Ali, 46, a resident of Mehdipatnam in Hyderabad, was killed when a roof collapsed during the attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh on October 10. He was travelling with his family for Umrah.

His wife and three children were injured in the incident — his son Amaan is in intensive care, and his son Wasey lost three toes, according to reports.

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said on Sunday that he had contacted the Indian Embassy's Deputy Chief of Mission in Riyadh and urged External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri to intervene on the family's behalf.
