Indian worker, who is overstaying in the country, is unable to avail amnesty due to his limited mobility. 

Khater Mohammed Adnan, 26, from Kerala has sustained multiple injuries to his backbone and fractures on both legs in a work-site accident in August this year.

"I cannot walk without the help of crutches. There is severe pain on by back when I sit down for a long period. I neither have the means nor the physical ability to go to the embassy or any amnesty centre," the worker told, reported KhaleejTimes.

Medical records showed that he was under treatment at the Mafraq hospital for two months in inpatient acute care, and was discharged on September 29.

Adnan said he fell oblivious after the mishap and was raced to Sheik Khalifa Medical City in Abu Dhabi, and was later exchanged to Mafraq Hospital. "I experienced five medical procedures, including skin joining on my back and my legs. Presently I can figure out how to walk a little with the assistance of supports." 

The man asserted that the mischance happened three days before he would leave the nation after the wiping out of his work visa, and the finish of the accessible 30-day beauty period. 

"My ticket was booked, and I was looking forward to return to my family when the accident happened. I slipped and fell down from a ladder at the construction site where I was working."

Adnan said he came to the UAE nine years ago to work as a cook for an Arab family. He was doing odd jobs after his visa was cancelled by his employer. "My family incurred a huge debt after marrying off my two sisters. I am the sole breadwinner for my parents. I am not in a position to let them know about my situation."

His biggest worry is not having a passport to fly home. "I lost my passport on the day of the accident. I was carrying it with me in a small plastic bag but it was left behind when I was taken to the hospital. Now after two months, I am unable to find it."

Adnan said he needs help to approach the embassy to obtain an emergency certificate, and apply for amnesty.

"I don't have an additional combine of garments or a cell phone not to mention enough cash to buy a ticket. I don't know how I will survive and furthermore support my further treatment. Be that as it may, now, all I need is to go home yet my stability is the greatest test," said Adnan.
