The Nepali Embassy in the United States has rescued three Nepali nationals stranded in Trinidad and Tobago for over a month.
The embassy said it rescued Sersang Tamang, Tirtha Lama Waiba and Yangjen Sherpa with the cooperation of the Trinidad and Tobago government.
Tamang departed from Trinidad and Tobago on Monday and will arrive in Kathmandu on Wednesday, the embassy said in a statement.
Waiba and Sherpa are scheduled to depart from Trinidad and Tobago on Thursday and will arrive in Kathmandu on Saturday.
They were stranded at Piarco International Airport due to the cancellation of their return flight to Nepal upon arrival in Trinidad and Tobago, which complicated their immigration status, according to the embassy.
The embassy has expressed its sincere thanks to Trinidad and Tobago government for its cooperation in this entire process.
The embassy has urged Nepali nationals intending to travel to the Caribbean countries for tourism and other purposes to take necessary measures to ensure that their purpose of visit matches with the category of visa they have been issued.
