The central government has informed the Delhi high court that the Supreme Court in Yemen on November 13 had dismissed the appeal of Malayali nurse Nimisha Priya against the death sentence imposed on her for murdering a Yemeni national. The final decision now lies with the President of Yemen, the government told the high court on Thursday.
The court was hearing a writ petition filed by the mother of Nimisha Priya seeking permission to travel to Yemen to negotiate with the victim’s family by paying blood money.
The Delhi high court asked the Centre to take a decision within a week on a request to travel to Yemen from the mother.
