Jammu: Two minor sisters from Pakistan-administered Kashmir, who were detained after they inadvertently crossed the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district, were repatriated on Monday, officials said.
Laiba Zabair (17) and her younger sister Sana Zabair (13), residents of Kahuta Tehsil in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, were detained on Sunday after being spotted moving into this side by Indian troops.
“Two girls of Abbasspur, Tehsil Forward Kahuta of PaK, who had inadvertently crossed into Indian side in Poonch, have been repatriated from the Chakan Da Bagh (CDB) crossing point today,” a defence spokesman said.
