Babushahi Bureau
New Delhi, February 18, 2025: In a tragic development, 33-year-old Shahzadi Khan from the Banda district of Uttar Pradesh is currently facing the death penalty in Abu Dhabi.
She has been imprisoned in Al Wathba prison following a UAE court's ruling that condemned her to death for the alleged murder of a child in her custody.
Recent reports indicated that Shahzadi was scheduled for execution within 24 hours following her "final phone call home." However, the Indian Embassy subsequently confirmed that a review petition has been submitted, and the matter remains under consideration.
