Pakistani court reprimands Shahbaz's police for 'stop harassing Indian Sikh woman':

News Topical, Digital Desk : A Pakistani high court on Tuesday ordered police to stop harassing an Indian Sikh woman who converted to Islam and married a local Muslim man she met on the internet media.

Sarabjit Kaur, 48, was one of 2,000 Sikh pilgrims who crossed into Pakistan from India via the Wagah border earlier this month to participate in festivities related to Guru Nanak Jayanti. The pilgrims returned home on November 13, but Sarabjit Kaur was found missing.

A Lahore police officer said Kaur married Nasir Hussain of Sheikhupura district a day after arriving in Pakistan on November 4. Kaur accompanied Hussain to Sheikhupura when the pilgrims went to Nankana Sahib.

Kaur and Hussain filed a petition in the Lahore High Court, complaining that the police raided their home and pressured them to break off their marriage. Lahore High Court Judge Farooq Haider ordered the police to stop harassing the petitioners.

In the petition, Kaur said a police officer harassed the couple and forced them to end their marriage. Her husband is a Pakistani citizen and she has approached the Indian mission to extend his visa and obtain Pakistani citizenship.
