City woman Sunita Jamgade (43), who crossed over into Pakistan through the Line of Control (LoC) earlier this month from the Hunderman village in Kargil, was handed over to the Indian authorities by Pakistani officials. A team of Nagpur City police has reached Amritsar to bring Sunita back. Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Zone 5, Niketan Kadam said, the team of City police would bring Sunita back to Nagpur. Jamgade, a resident of Sant Kabir Nagar, in Kapil Nagar Police Station area, was reported missing on May 14. She crossed the border in Kargil area and left her son behind and was nabbed by the Pakistani forces. A team comprising one officer and two women constables has been sent to Amritsar to bring Sunita back after she was handed-over to BSF. Pakistan forces captured Sunita after she crossed the Indo-Pak border.

 

The Pakistan Rangers have handed her over to the Border Security Force (BSF) on Saturday. Later, BSF handed her over to Amritsar Police, added Kadam. “We will interrogate her once she is in Nagpur. We need to verify whether she was involved in spying or any other unlawful activity,” he added. Sunita was in touch with Pakistani nationals Zulfekar and Pastor before going missing. A zero FIR has been registered by the Amritsar Police, which will be transferred to the Kapil Nagar Police Station in Nagpur, as her permanent address is in Nagpur. Jamgade’s 12-year-old son, who was taken into the care of the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) following her disappearance, also will be brought back to Nagpur soon.

 

Sunita, a former nurse from a hospital in Nagpur and a door-to-door garment seller, had been showing signs of emotional distress and confusion in the weeks leading up to her disappearance. Her family had also shared that she was mentally ill and was undergoing treatment at a local hospital. Her husband divorced her and married to another woman. Sunita was living with her mother and son in Sant Kabir Nagar.
