As per the details, Mir Murtaza Ali, a resident of Tadban, Kalapatha went to Khobar, Saudi to work as an Auto Cad Operator in Manto Rose Café. His salary was 3000 Saudi Riyal per month.
Shahana Begum, wife of Murtaza gave the details of the contract. She said that Kafeel had promised to allow Murtaza to return home during the month of Ramadan. However, later, Kafeel said that Murtaza cannot visit home in the next two years.
