The crazy story of Seema Haider, a Pakistani woman who fled her country to live with her PUBG lover in India, took yet another bizarre turn after cops received a threatening call demanding her return.
According to the Mumbai Police, on Tuesday, July 12, a traffic control room received a WhatsApp call from an unidentified person warning of a 26/11-like terror attack if Seema Haider did not return to her country.
The caller, who spoke in Urdu, said there would be a terror attack, like the one that took place on November 26, 2008, in Mumbai and that the Uttar Pradesh government will be responsible for it, the police official said.
Mumbai Police is investigating the threat call and a crime branch team has also been roped in, he said.
Seema, a native of Sindh, Pakistan, had illegally entered India through Nepal, along with her four children -- aged seven and below -- to live with one Sachin Meena, whom she met online while playing the mobile game PUBG.
The bizarre story came to light earlier this month after the woman in her late 20s, along with Sachin, a Greater Noida resident, was arrested from Ballabhgarh, Haryana while fleeing the police.
Seema was arrested on July 4 for illegally entering into India without a visa via Nepal, while Sachin was put behind bars for sheltering the illegal immigrants.
The duo, along with Sachin's father, who was also arrested by the police, were granted bail on July 8.
Seema, whose Pakistani husband is currently working in the middle-east said that she met Sachin during the lockdown while playing the online game, and later they became closer.
Their lawyer, Advocate Hemant Krishna Parashar, said the couple first met in Nepal in March, and they tied the knot at Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu.
As Seema was not willing to return to Pakistan, she boarded a bus to India and reached here on May 13. Since then, the couple was residing together at a rented house in Ambedkar Nagar, Rabupura.
After they were granted bail Sachin and Seema have been living in her new husband's home.?
Seema said she prefers staying back in India. "I would like to stay in India. I am his wife."
The Pakistani woman, who was already married before she met Sachin, said her 'former' husband doesn't 'need' her anymore. "He did not need for me earlier and neither does he need me now. I texted him saying that I want him to look after his first wife and his children by her," she told ANI.
