THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Earlier reports have surfaced that Malayalee women who had joined ISIS will not be taken back to the country. The central government has decided not to take back Sonia Sebastian, Merin Jacob, Nimisha Fathima and Rafeela who are currently lodge in Afghanistan jail.
Despite the Afghanistan government expressing willingness to deport them to India, the centre has not given any response yet. Now, Nimisha Fathima’s mother Bindu has made an emotional reply on this issue. Bindhu has asked why everybody has left her daughter to die in Afghanistan.
Bindhu was under the expectation that the centre will bring back Nimisha and will take appropriate legal measures in that regard. “As an Indian, it is my human right. Am living in India. I haven’t done anything against this country. Even before my daughter has left the country, I had informed to Kerala government and the police officials who had handled the case then. But they did nothing to stop her. Those who took people to ISIS are still living in this country,” she said.
Bindu had approached the police in 2016, with the man missing complaint of her daughter Attukal native, Nimisha. In the subsequent investigation, it was revealed that Nimisha had converted to Islam, took the name Fathima and fled to Syria to join ISIS.
