According to The Hindu, Evangelin had a valid passport and visa. He came to India on September 24 and arrived in Kancheepuram on October 12 from Chennai.

He visited a few temples around the town and had spent all the cash he had as well as his phone balance. In a bid to withdraw cash he went to the ATM but his pin got locked. Baffled, he decided to beg at the temple entrance for some money. According to Deccan Chronicle, a police officer said,

“We checked his travel documents, passport and visa. All documents are perfectly valid. He had spent all his money and was not sure how to reach Chennai.”

The Siva Kanchi police even gave him Rs. 500 and put him on a train to Chennai.

Sushma Swaraj, on reading this news tweeted

Evangelin reportedly did not answer the phone call from the consulate. But will be helped at the earliest. We thank Sushma Swaraj and her ‘Twitter governance’ for prompt action and response. You are living by the ‘Atithi Devo Bhava’ motto.
