Iranian refugee Mehran Karimi Nasseri died at the airport on Saturday. He lived inside the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport for years and inspired Steven Spielberg&rsquo;s film &lsquo;The Terminal&rsquo;.

Iranian refugee Mehran Karimi Nasseri, who had lived inside the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport for years and inspired Steven Spielberg&rsquo;s film &lsquo;The Terminal&rsquo;, died at the airport on Saturday. He was pronounced dead at Terminal 2F by the airport medical team. A spokesperson told CNN that he had died of natural causes.&nbsp; &nbsp; According to CNN report, Nasseri was on his way to England via Belgium and France in 1988 when he lost his papers. He could not board a flight nor leave the airport and was stuck in limbo until 2006 due to a lack of residency papers and later by choice.&nbsp; &nbsp; A spokesperson said he returned to live at the airport as a homeless person in the public area in mid-September after a stay in a nursing home.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The spokesperson added that Nasseri was an &lsquo;iconic character&rsquo; and the &lsquo;whole airport community was attached to him, and our staff looked after him as much as possible for many years, even if we would have preferred him to find a real shelter.&rsquo;&nbsp; &nbsp; He was nicknamed Lord Alfred by the staff and was a mini-celebrity among passengers.&nbsp; Nasseri&rsquo;s story was memorialized by Steven Spielberg in the movie &lsquo;The Terminal&rsquo;, starring Tom Hanks. The spokesperson for the airport noted that: &lsquo;The Spielberg film suggests that he was stuck in a transit zone at Paris-Charles de Gaulle. In reality, he spent several stays there, but always in the public area of the airport, he was always free to move around.&rsquo;&nbsp; &nbsp; French authorities reportedly offered to allow Nasseri to reside in France, but he turned down the offer because he wanted to go to England, his original destination.&nbsp; &nbsp; Nasseri was born in 1945 in Soleiman, a part of Iran then under British jurisdiction, to an Iranian father and a British mother. He went to study in England in 1974. He was imprisoned upon his return to Iran for protesting against the shah and expelled without a passport.&nbsp;
