A series of cases were brought against Husain and a court case related to the alleged obscene depiction of Hindu goddesses in his paintings resulted in issuing a non-bailable warrant against him after he failed to respond to summons. There were also reportedly death threats.[30][31][32]
Husain, who left India stating that "matters are so legally complicated that I have been advised not to return home",[33] had living abroad self-exile since 2006.[34] He had expressed a strong desire to come back, despite fears that he may be arrested in connection with the cases against him.[34] Later a recent Supreme Court order suspended an arrest warrant for Husain.[35] In absence of dual citizenship, Union Home Secretary, GK Pillai, said that MF Husain was free to come back and would be provided security if he requested it.[36]
Qatari nationality was conferred upon him at the instance of the modernizing emirate’s ruling family and had been living in Dubai, spending his summers in London. He traveled freely except to India. His work in Qatar was mostly towards two large projects, the history of Indian civilization and the history of Arab civilization, the latter was commissioned by Qatar’s powerful first lady – Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser al Missned, wife of the emirate’s ruler, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani. The works are to be housed in a museum in Doha.[37]
