Indian not allowed to bring pregnant Sudanese wife home, cries for help

[ad_1]
New Delhi: An Indian national in crisis-torn Sudan has been left in a spot after the Indian mission in Khartoum approved his evacuation request but left behind his pregnant wife who is a Sudanese national.
Boby Sebastian from Kottayam, Kerala, has been working in Khartoum for the past three years, and is married to Sudanese national Hala Muawia Mohamed Abuzaid.
“Due to current unrest in the country and deadly situation we registered evacuation request to (the) Indian Embassy in Khartoum,” Sebastian wrote in a message posted by author and migrant rights activist Rejimon Kuttappan on his social media.

“The evacuation request was successful for me but unfortunately, my wife was not listed on the selected names… I feel it is very unsafe and dangerous to leave her here (Sudan), and also she is conceiving,” the message read.
Sebastian’s Sudanese wife does not have a valid Indian visa or an OCI card at the moment.
According to Kuttappan, the couple has marriage documents, and the wife has also visited Kerala in the past.
Sebastian has requested the relevant Indian authorities to intervene, saying that there isn’t “enough time to obtain a valid Indian visa” for his wife.
Responding to Kuttappan’s tweet, Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram, Shashi Tharoor said that he is now in direct touch with Sebastian, and has contacted External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s office for an emergency evacuation.

“I am in touch with him directly in Khartoum and have contacted @DrSjaishankar’s office to arrange for an emergency evacuation on a temporary permit till her OCI card can be processed,” Tharoor wrote in response to the tweet.
“MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) will probably need to coordinate with MHA (Ministry of Home Affairs) to get this done. My sympathies are with him,” Tharoor wrote.
There are approximately 4,000 Indian citizens in Sudan, and according to the Indian Embassy in Khartoum, about 1,500 of them are longtime residents.
Albert Augustine, a 48 year-old former Indian serviceman, was recently killed by a stray bullet in Sudan.
Jaishankar assured Indians trapped in Sudan that the government was making all-out efforts to get them to safety.
“Our team in Delhi is in continuous touch with Indian citizens in Sudan, advising them saying, you know, ‘It’s very difficult for everybody, but keep calm, don’t take unnecessary risk’,” he said.
Violent clashes that erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces on April 15, continues unabated.
According to Sudan’s Health Ministry, the violence has left at least 424 people dead and about 3,730 wounded.
Last week, the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) said the ongoing heavy fighting is putting tens of thousands of pregnant women in danger, making it too perilous to venture outside their homes to seek urgent medical care.
UNFPA estimates that there are 219,000 pregnant women in the capital city of Khartoum, the epicentre of the violence, with 24,000 of them expected to give birth in the coming weeks.
The unrest has made it extremely difficult for women to seek essential antenatal care, safe delivery services, or postnatal care, the UN agency added.

Pregnant woman shot at by neighbour in Delhi for objecting to loud music at function

[ad_1]
New Delhi: A 30-year-old woman suffered a miscarriage after she was shot at by her neighbour in northwest Delhi’s Siraspur on Monday when she objected to loud music being played by a DJ during a function at his house, police said.
Harish, who fired at the pregnant woman, and his friend Amit, whose gun was used in the commission of the crime, have been arrested, they said.
The condition of the woman is stated to be critical.

At around 12:15 am, a PCR call was received regarding a firing incident in Siraspur, a senior police officer said.
After reaching the spot, it was found that a woman, Ranju, a resident of Siraspur, was admitted to Max Hospital in Shalimar Bagh. Doctors at the hospital told police that she had sustained a gunshot injury in her neck and was unfit for giving a statement, said Deputy Commissioner of Police (outer north) Ravi Kumar Singh.
Later, the statement of an eyewitness, the victim’s sister-in-law, was recorded.
On Sunday, there was a ‘kuan pujan’ ceremony for Harish’s son and a DJ was playing music during the function. Ranju came out in her balcony and asked Harish, who lives across the street, to stop the music, according to the eyewitness’ statement.
Thereafter, Harish took a gun from his friend Amit and opened fire. A bullet hit Ranju, the eyewitness told police.

Harish and Amit have been arrested. A case under sections 307 (attempt to murder) and 34 (common intention) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and section 27 of the Arms Act has been registered against them, the police said.
Harish works as a delivery boy and Amit works at a mobile repair shop, who was pregnant, they said.

The division bench comprising Chief Justice Arvind Kumar and Justice A.J. Shastri while hearing a PIL observed on Tuesday, “We will appoint an independent panel, as we are seeing too many such incidents where unless an amount is paid, hospitals don’t admit patients…We want an independent authority to examine the issue.”
The court has appointed a three-member committee, which will be led by retired Justice Harsha Devani of the High Court. The other two members are Dr. Lavina Sinha, Deputy Commissioner of Police for Ahmedabad, who is also a licenced physician, and IAS Ramya Mohan, Mission Director of the National Health Mission. To assist the court on the matter Asim Pandya has been appointed as amicus curiae.
The committee will look into the two incidents in detail, prepare a detailed report and suggest remedies to the court.
A pregnant woman who gave birth outside the hospital on the sidewalk in February 2022 was refused medical attention by L.G. Hospital, which is managed by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation. The newborn died soon after birth.
In another case, a pregnant woman was turned away by a private hospital in January 2022 because she was unable to pay the money. As a result, the woman gave birth on the hospital steps.

Pregnant woman credits Apple Watch for saving her life

[ad_1]
San Francisco: A US-based pregnant woman has credited Apple Watch for saving her and her unborn baby’s lives following an abnormally high heart rate warning.
With a few weeks left until her due date, Jesse Kelly was not doing anything that would raise her heart rate to over 120 beats per minute, but her Apple Watch kept alerting her that her heart rate was high, reports CBS News.
“It went off the first time and I thought it was strange. Then the second time maybe 10 minutes later or so and then the third time maybe a half hour or so later. When it went off the third time I thought ‘OK something is going on,” Kelly was quoted as saying.
She then immediately went to the hospital.
When Kelly arrived at the hospital, she discovered that she was in full-blown labour, her blood pressure was dropping and was losing blood due to a pregnancy complication known as placenta abruption, according to the report.
Three hours later, she was gifted a healthy baby girl named Shelby Marie.
Moreover, speaking from experience, Kelly advised everyone to pay attention to their alerts.
“It’s not just a text message. Pay attention to it and listen to your body,” she said.

Meanwhile, an Apple watch also helped detect undiagnosed heart blockage in a woman.
A woman named Elain Thompson suffered seizures in 2018, and as part of her post-diagnosis treatment, her daughter suggested her to wear an Apple Watch to monitor her health.
Thompson recently received an alert from her Apple Watch that her heart rhythm was unusual.
