New Delhi: <\/b><\/p>\n
Pakistani woman Seema Haider, who illegally crossed over to India last year to be with her lover, has been summoned by a family court in Noida.<\/p>\n
Seema Haider was married to Ghulam Haider when she sneaked into India along with her four minor children last year in May.<\/p>\n
Seema and her partner in India – Sachin Meena – had met while playing mobile game PUBG. The two claim to have got married in Kathmandu during an earlier meeting.<\/p>\n
Ghulam Haider – who lives in Karachi – had filed a petition in the family court in Noida through an Indian lawyer, challenging the validity of Seema’s marriage with Sachin Meena.<\/p>\n
The two also celebrated their first wedding anniversary last month.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In his petition, Ghulam Haider has also challenged his children’s religious conversion.<\/p>\n
Ghulam Haider’s lawyer Momin Malik claims that Seema had not taken divorce from Ghulam Haider and that her marriage with Sachin was not valid.<\/p>\n
Ms Haider has been asked to appear before the court on May 27.<\/p>\n
Ghulam Haider had first approached Ansar Burney, a top Pakistani lawyer and human rights activist, for help in getting custody of his four children.<\/p>\n
Ansar Burney, a top Pakistani lawyer and human rights activist, said that Ghulam Haider, Seema’s Pakistani husband, had approached him for help in getting custody of his four children.<\/p>\n
Mr Burney then hired Ali Momin in India and sent him power of attorney to start legal proceedings in Indian courts.<\/p>\n
Seema Haider’s first husband was working in Saudi Arabia when she came to India via the UAE and Nepal.<\/p>\n
In an interview with BBC, Seema had earlier said that she had adopted Hinduism and refused to return to Pakistan. Seema Haider claims her children have also converted to Hinduism.<\/p>\n
Mr Burney had said that according to international laws, religious conversion of underage children is prohibited.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
