Relatives of a 35-year-old man from Mallan village in Gidderbaha, who faces beheading in Saudi Arabia, are seeking financial assistance from public to save his life.

Notably, Balwinder Singh would be executed if he fails to pay Rs 2 crore blood money to a family there by May 15. Balwinder was held guilty of killing a Saudi Arabian national in 2013. He had gone to the Middle East in 2008.

 

Hardeep Singh, cousin of Balwinder, said, “There was a dispute between a Punjabi youth and Saudi Arabian national. Balwinder just intervened. As the Saudi resident tried to kill him with a knife, Balwinder hit him with a stick in self-defence. The man lost his life after four days of hospitalisation. Balwinder was first awarded imprisonment for seven years. Thereafter, the court told him to pay blood money of Rs 2 crore by November 8, 2021, to the deceased’s family or face beheading.”

Another cousin, Joginder Singh, said, “After Balwinder pleaded for some time to arrange money, he was given a deadline till May 15. We have collected around Rs 1.3 crore. Balwinder has also arranged Rs 40 lakh. Now, we are short of Rs 30 lakh.”

Hardeep said, “We appeal to the philanthropists and the state government to help us. Balwinder is lodged in Riyadh jail.”

Gurpreet Kaur, sarpanch, Dadu Mohalla Mallan, said, “The family is speaking truth. They do not have money or land to save the life of Balwinder. We will go to meet the Deputy Commissioner tomorrow in this regard.”

I don't understand why Panjabis/Sikhs risk their lives to go to these countries. I know Panjab has its issues but its definitely better than these places. 
 

In 2014, 27 Panjabis were killed in Iraq! They went there for "employment opportunities".

I visited Dubai once, it was OK for a one off holiday, I would never go again and certainly wouldn't want to live or work there. The law is heavily in favour of the locals and I can imagine it being far worse in Saudi Arabia.

I really don't undertaken the apne who visit Dubai every single year. It really is shallow place.

Dubai/UAE is only bright on the surface. In reality, these countries rest on mountains of human tragedies.

There's a rumour that social media "influencers" who often visit Dubai do extremely revolting things for wealthy men in exchange for money and gifts.

Ikr like all I see in the videos is shopping places and similar stuff nothing else. That country just seems to be built for materialism lol. Is there much to do there? I mean everytime i see dubai vlogs people literally be going to the same mall and a few similar places like this indoor amusement park, this cultural place where they have food from all over the world and a few other things. Like I always wonder what do people go to dubai even for?

It doesn't matter who is wrong and who is right they will always side with the arabs like the law is anti non Arab inherently. Idky anyone would go to these countries like Dubai Kuwait and Saudi. Even if they were the only developed countries in the world I wouldnt go there.

Oh 100% sure about the influencer thing. They are also paid money to promote Dubai. They post the same pictures infront of that burj Khalifa and what not. It's all business. People will do anything for money now a days.

99% of the people in the world are nothing but dumb sheep. Will follow anything tjat is trending. No one wants to use their brain analyse their choices or anything.  Everyone is doing it so let me do it too.
