LAHORE: During the annual Baba Guru Nanak Yatra in Pakistan, an Indian Sikh woman, Sarbjeet Kaur, converted to Islam and married a Pakistani citizen.
Renamed Noor after embracing Islam, the 48-year-old Sarbjeet Kaur married Nasser Hussain, a resident of Farooqabad in Sheikhupura district, on 5 November. The marriage contract included a mahr of PKR 10,000, which has been fully paid.
Sarbjeet Kaur had arrived in Pakistan on 4 November with a group of Indian pilgrims.
However, she did not return with the group on 13 November, when her visa also expired, leading authorities to initially declare her missing.
Subsequent investigations revealed that she had converted to Islam and entered into marriage with a Pakistani national.
