Seema Haider, a Pakistani woman who illegally entered India to be with her Indian lover, has requested Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to allow her to stay in India, India Today reported.

“Please let me stay back in India with Sachin. If you send me back to Pakistan, they will stone me to death,” Seema said on Friday.

Seema, a mother of four, illegally entered India in May to marry Sachin Meena, a resident of Greater Noida. The two started chatting while playing PUBG.

She said that she had been a Hindu for over a year, however, she could not disclose her belief while in Pakistan due to life threats.

The Indian police had arrested Seema and Sachin for entering India illegally without a visa through Nepal.

They were later released on bail, after which Seema announced that she has converted to Hinduism and embraced the culture by wearing Radhe-Radhe strap around her neck and touching the feet of elders for blessings.

She was given a clean chit after an anti-terrorist squad in the Indian State of Uttar Pradesh grilled her for two days over the recovery of five Pakistani passports, an unused passport, and an identity card among other things from her.

Seema said that her brother had joined the Pakistani Army in 2022 but in the lowest rank.

“I crossed over illegally as I had no option. I did not want to live in Pakistan,” she said.

“If anyone in Pakistan would have come to know that I was going to India, they would have killed me. I am not a spy,” Seema said.
