On Saturday, Mohsin Khan Abbasi, the chief executive officer of a real estate company based in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, visited Anju and Nasrullah at their residence. He presented Anju a cheque, with an undisclosed amount, and a land document in the presence of her husband to make her feel at home in Pakistan.
"The fact that Anju is being welcomed in Pakistan and getting gifts is raising several doubts. That's why I have directed the special branch of police to examine the case minutely, to rule out any international conspiracy," Mishra said.
