• A Syrian man says he has been trapped at a Malaysian airport for over a month but cannot leave or travel to other countries because of restrictions placed on Syrian nationals.
• The man has attempted to leave the Kuala Lumpur airport but has overstayed his visa and has been rejected from other countries.
• Several agencies have reached out to find a solution but so far he remains trapped in the international terminal.
