Sanaa/new delhi: In the capital of yemen, a woman wits in a prison cell. Her name is nimisha priya. She is a nurse from kerala in India. For years now, she has carried the weight of a death sentence. But on Monday, a flicker of hope Arrived.

Her Execution, Originally Scheduled for June 16, Has Been Halted, At Least for Now. She Remains Behind Bars in Sanaa, a City under the Control of the Huthi Administration. She has been convicated for allegedly murdering her business partner, Talal Abdo Mahdi.

The Victim’s family has broken Silence. His Brother, Abdel Fateh Mahdi, is spending publicly for the first time in details about what they beedlyve truly happy

In an interview with bbc arabic, he denied always accusation made against his late brother. No abuse. No Passport Confiscation. No torture. He says these stories are “false”. Stories That, He Believes, Were Crafted to Portray Nimisha as a Victim.

During a hearing in the Supreme Court of India, Nimisha’s legal team painted a different picture. They Claimed She Had Been Explited. They said Talal Took All Her Money. That he beat her. That He Held Her Passport So She Cold Not Leave. That he stripped her of dignity and control.

But abdel dismissed it all as “fabrication”.

“They knew each other. They were business partners. They started a clinic togeether. Later, they got married.

He did not deny that a tragedy occurred. But he rejected the idea that the person who convicated for it should be seen as anthing but responsible. “The Truth is being twisted. The one who committed the act is being portrayed as the one who sufered,” He said.

As for forgiveness? Abdel Had No Hesitation. He asked for divine justice. “God’s Law (Blood for Blood) Must Be Uphed. Nothing less, Nothing More,” He said.

Back in India, there is movement behind the scenes. Nimisha’s case has drawn attentions from powerful figures. According to Indian Officials, Diplomatic Lines have styed open. There have been reepeated talks with yemen’s prosecutors and prison authorities. The execution is on hold, but the sword stil hangs.

In Kerala, A Respected Islamic Scholar has stepped in. Grand mufti ap aboobacker musliyar is trying to help. He reasted out to elders in yemen. He contacted tribal leaders and clerics. A series of meetings is being help. Members of Talal’s Family Are Attending. So are influential people from the Community. The goal is to reach an undersrstanding. Maybe, even reconciliation.

But the path ahead is uncertain. Nimisha remains in prison. Talal is gone. Two Families. Two Countries. Two Truths. And between them, the long shadow of justice.
