Soon after the President of Yemen approved Kerala nurse Nimisha Priya's death sentence, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Tuesday said all possible help is being extended to her. Nimisha Priya, a 36-year-old nurse from Kollengode in Kerala's Palakkad district, had moved to Yemen in 2008 to support her parents. After working in several hospitals, she eventually opened her own clinic. She came in contact with Talal Abdo Mahdi in 2014 to open her own establishment, as local law mandates partnering with a local to start a business in Yemen.
