On Saturday morning at 02.10.2021, Umar Sharif left us from the Nuremberg, a hospital of Germany, and set off on an eternal journey.
News of Umar Sharif’s death scattered like wildfire in the media throughout the world.
Umar Sharif’s wife was alone here in Nuremberg, Germany. According to the tweet of Dr. Faisal a Pakistani Ambassador, the Ambassador of the Frankfurt Consulate is in the hospital in Nuremberg, Germany to help Mrs. Umar.
There are three choices for shifting the dead body from Germany to Pakistan. The first was by the related air ambulance from which they began for medication, the second was with a personal chartered plane, the third was with a regular commercial or cargo flight.
The first option is completed when the FAI Aviation Air Ambulance Authority was asked, they informed me that the body could not be deported by the related air ambulance. It was a separate contract. The patient was in the hospital in Germany and now that the patient has died.
Hence, an air ambulance is not a choice for deporting the dead. An air ambulance is an urgent service for patients, not a body transport.
But, “If the family wants, we can settle for a private chartered plane to bring the deceased, but this is also a very costly service.” Or another way, the deceased will be sent by cargo. And that only looks probable after Monday.
The second choice depends on the last decision of the ministry and the management of Mrs. Umar’s chartered aircraft.
The third choice is more possible because there is a certain reason. You are not permitted to move the deceased if the paperwork is not fulfilled. Offices are not opened on weekends, so paperwork is a little bit slow. According to Pakistani embassy officials, the paperwork is expected to be fulfilled by Monday.
Nevertheless, according to the rules, if the hospital first prepares the death certificate and another document, they will be delivered over to the embassy team, and later the travel documents will be provided. Because of all these reasons, the transference of the deceased is expected to be delayed from Monday to Tuesday.
While on the other hand, the Pakistani society in Germany continues to arrange the last rites in Frankfurt. The request was sent to the Pakistani embassy officials by Saleem Pervez Butt, president of the Pakistani German Press Club.
However, if the cremation is to be taken in Frankfurt, it could be the main cause for the delay in the return of the deceased in Pakistan.
To prepare for the cremation, you must include the German officials in the documents and securities protocol.
