'If Seema Haider Doesn't Come Back...': Mumbai Police Gets Call Threatening '26/11-Like Terror Attack'

The caller demanded the repatriation of Pakistani national Seema Haider, who was detained by UP Police for illegally entering India to be with her partner who she had met through online game PUBG.

New Delhi: Mumbai Police initiated a probe after an unidentified person called the control room and threatened to carry out a terror attack similar to the 26/11 attacks, news agency ANI reported. The caller demanded the repatriation of Pakistani national Seema Haider, who was detained by Uttar Pradesh Police for illegally entering India to be with her partner who she had met through online game PUBG.

The caller demanded that Haider be sent back to Pakistan immediately, or else Mumbai must brace for a recurrence of a terror attack similar to the 26/11 events in the financial capital, ANI reported.

According to the report, the Mumbai Crime Branch is currently investigating the matter and are following the Standard Operating Procedure to thoroughly probe the call.

“It is a hoax call. We are gathering more details and verification of who called up is on,” News18 quoted Mumbai Police officials as saying. As per the report, the caller spoke in Urdu and said, “If Seema Haider does not come back then India will be destroyed”. 

According to a PTI report, the woman, identified as 27-year-old Seema Ghulam Haider met Sachin, a Greater Noida resident, over the online game PUBG which led to a friendship between them.

Police said that Sachin, who allegedly housed Seema Ghulam Haider and her children in his rented accommodation, has also been detained. 

"The Pakistani woman and the local man have been detained. The woman's four children are also in police custody," Deputy Commissioner of Police (Greater Noida) Saad Miya Khan told PTI. 

According to a report in Times of India, Haider set out from Karachi in May this year with her four children. They took a flight to Dubai and a connecting one to Kathmandu. 

From Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal, they went to Pokhara and took a bus, and managed to cross the Indian border illegally.

From here they reached Delhi, and a short ride away was her destination - the house of Sachin, a 22-year-old grocery store worker at Rabupura in Greater Noida.
