The predicament of Mr. Miguel Fernandes who had come to Kuwait for greener pasture from Goa (Loutolim – Salcette) just like most of us, was a victim of a road accident here in Kuwait.


On 14th of March Miguel was returning to his housing quarters after finishing his shift duty hours in the company transport, which overturned after colliding with a pick-up truck and then being rammed by a second following bus. Three personnel were killed and 17 others including Miguel were seriously injured.
Besides multiple fractures to this entire body, both of Mr. Miguel legs had to be amputated below the knee. He has been declared by the medical experts as 100% disabled from waist down.
Mr. Miguel works for one of the catering company who are sub contractor for Combat Support Associates (CSA) providing services to U.S. Army troops & Allied Forces at one of the camps, namely (Buehring).
In regard to Mr. Miguel’s plight, not much can be said & done. The catering company is now in the process of sending Miguel to Goa for his further treatment.
We kindly request all the Goan associations who would like to help Mr. Miguel in any kind or form, may contact his Brother Mr. Alex who works at the Mcdonals in Jabriya. Cell #760345.
