A trap laid by Indian woman Uzma turned out as the perfect anchor for external affairs ministry to successfully complete the diplomatic operation for liberating her from a Pakistani man who had forcibly married her.

Uzma’s gharwapsi which happened on Thursday appeared to be a script of another Bollywood potboiler on cross-border love story horribly gone wrong. Ujma, believed to be in her 20s, had tricked Tahir Ali to come to Indian high commission in Islamabad on a cooked up version that as per her Indian customs the brides family gives Rs 1.5 lakh cash as a wedding gift to the bridegroom, said external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj narrating the untold tales of the episode lapped up by media on her return to the national capital.

Ujma told Ali that her brother, who she claimed was employed at Indian High Commission, would hand him over the “nek” knowing that he was greedy.

Both went to the high commission in Islamabad. Ujma, however, managed to convince deputy high commissioner JP Singh about the nightmare she was passing through – that began with Ali drugging her at Wagah border to take her to a far off remote house where other wives and children were staying. The residence was filled with guns and loud sound of firing would deaf her ears.

As per her request, a couple working with the mission was told to interact with Ali posing as her brother and sister-in-law. Ujma requested the high commission to give shelter to her or she would commit suicide if asked to accompany Ali. She requested to tell her so-called husband to go back to his home since she will be staying with her brother, for the time being, the minister said.

Swaraj said JP Singh later called her up to seek a go ahead. The minister, however, said she was cautious and asked the high commission to confirm her Indian roots before moving ahead. After the MEA verified her address from the Indian passport she was carrying, Sushma said she personally handled the issue and would call up at least thrice to speak to the Singh and Ujma to ensure the events unfold as per carefully crafted design. The minister approached her family and called Wasim Ahmed to speak to Ujma from the official phone. Sushma said she kept on convicingUjma that she was India’s daughter and the country will fight to bring her home.

She was kept inside the High Commission complex under the tutelage of women employees owing to Uzma’s emotional breakdown – she would often insist that she would prefer to swallow poison rather than going back to Tahil Ali whom she courted in Malaysia.

To diver her attention from the whole episode which had mentally drained her, Swaraj said that she told her to work in the high commission’s visa section which is manned by women staff.

Due to the cooperation of Pakistan foreign and interior ministries and their court’s direction, Ujma was allowed to go back. At around 2.30 pm late on Wednesday night, JP Singh drove her to Wagah border. But, there the two had to wait for two hours in the official car before the border opened for crossing over.
