SWABI, Sept 10: Families of two persons who died in an accident in Saudi Arabia 22 days ago, have appealed to the Saudi authorities and the government to simplify procedure for sending bodies home.

Mohammad Raziq and Khalid Khan of Maneri locality were killed in an accident. The body of the latter arrived here on Thursday, but that of the former was still awaited because the desired documents were not cleared by the concerned departments of the kingdom.

Relatives said the process of sending the body of Mr Raziq was delayed due to complicated procedure of clearance in such cases.
