An Indian expatriate who was on his way home was found dead in a public toilet at Jeddah’s King Abdulaziz International Airport on Friday evening.
“The police station at King Abdulaziz International Airport received information from airport staff stating that a 38-year-old man had been found dead inside one of the toilets at the departure lounge,” said Aati Al-Qureshi, spokesman for Makkah police. “He had hung himself using a water pipe.

The passenger was due to fly on a Saudi Arabian Airlines flight to Mumbai. According to the General Authority of Civil Aviation, the deceased has been identified as Ayub Khan who worked as house driver.
It said the “deceased had behaved violently at the passenger departure lounge, prompting airport authorities to prevent him from boarding the flight to ensure other passengers' safety on board. Later his body was discovered in the toilet”.
