An elderly Pakistani died aboard Karachi-bound Saudi Airlines flight 704 after leaving Jeddah on April 14.
The passenger appeared to be in serious condition so the captain requested permission for emergency landing at King Khaled International Airport, Riyadh, for providing him medical assistance. But the man died before landing of the plane.
The deceased was accompanied by 10 relatives. All of them disembarked in Riyadh. The plane left for Karachi after a small delay.
