Hamida Banu: Missing India woman found in Pakistan returns home

It reached Ms Banu’s family in India when her grandson – who she had never met – saw it.

Mr Shaikh and Mr Maroof then arranged a call between Ms Banu and her Indian family.

“How are you? Did you recognise me? Where were you all these years?” Ms Banu’s daughter Yasmin was seen asking in the video call.

“Don’t ask me where I was, and how I have been. I missed you all so much. I didn’t stay here willingly, I had no other choice,” Ms Banu replied.

After she reached India on Monday, Ms Banu recalled the 2022 video that helped her connect with her family after years.

“My video was shared two years ago. I was not sure if I would reach India,” she said. “But the Indian embassy called me one year ago, saying you can go back.”

Speaking to BBC Punjabi, Ms Banu said she was happy to be back with her children and siblings. “I have brothers, sisters, children there [in India], but I don’t want to be a burden on anyone.”
