Anju, the Indian mother of two children who travelled legally to Pakistan, married her Pakistani Facebook friend on Tuesday after converting to Islam, a senior police officer said. Anju, 34, was staying at her 29-year-old Pakistani friend Nasrullah’s home. They became friends on Facebook in 2019. The couple tied the knot in a local court of a district and sessions judge.

“Nasrullah and Anju’s marriage was solemnised today and proper Nikah was performed after she converted to Islam,” Muhammad Wahab, a senior officer at Moharrar City police station in Upper Dir district, told PTI. Anju is married to one Arvind, who is in Rajasthan. They have a 15-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son.
