To what end will this help? The passenger did not conform to visa requirements and was denied boarding.
Your friend could have purchased any cheap ticket from the S. Asia country to another via plane, train or bus to be in compliance.

-after completing the domestic flight the second airline denied passenger boarding because they did not have a return ticket as part of the entry requirement to final destination
-first airline says they are only required to check requirements for the segments they operate
-second airline says that the airline who initially accepted the bags and tagged them to final was supposed to perform a TIMATIC check
-friend has obviously reached out to both airlines customer relations teams but i was unable to google any clear answer to assist so i said i would inquire here
