Janardhanan Pattiery (57) and Minija (52), both hailing from from Kerala's Kozhikode district, were residents of Abu Dhabi for nearly 18 years, Khaleej Times reported.


Pattiery, who worked with a travel agency, had recently lost his job. Minija, on the other hand, was a chartered accountant.


"They were calm and quiet people. I don't remember them having any issue with anyone. Pattiery had lost his job. Earlier they had sold their car. All friends and colleagues are shocked. This is unexpected," the report quoted a family friend as saying.


The couple's only son, who studied in Abu Dhabi, was employed in Bengaluru, said a PTI report.


On July 23 night, the police found them dead inside their flat. A social worker is following the case for the repatriation of the mortal remains.


The cause of their death was not immediately known.
