Hyderabad man, Duped Into Fighting Ukraine war, Dies In Russia

8 months ago 12

An Indian who was duped into joining Russia's war against Ukraine has been killed. In a post on X on Wednesday, the Indian Embassy in Russia confirmed the death of Mohammed Asfan from Hyderabad, but has not stated the cause or mentioned what he was doing in the country.

The family of Afsan, who is among nearly two dozen Indians who were taken to Russia on the pretext of being given high-paying jobs, said they were informed about his death by AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi.

Mr Owaisi was among the first to highlight the issue last month. On February 21, the AIMIM leader had said he had written to External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar about men from states like Telangana, Gujarat, Karnataka, Jammu and Kashmir and Uttar Pradesh being duped in this manner and being forced to take part in the war.
