Man breaks into Seema Haider's house, claims she did ‘black magic' on him
A man on Saturday allegedly broke into Pakistani national Seema Haider's house in Uttar Pradesh's Noida, claiming that she had done "black magic" on him.
Police officials said that the man, identified as Tejas, a resident of Gujarat's Surender Nagar, was arrested, reported PTI.
They further said that the accused seemed to be "mentally disturbed" and tried to enter Seema's residence around 7 pm.
Sujeet Upadhyay, in-charge at Rabupura Kotwali, told PTI, "He hails from Gujarat and took a general coach ticket of a train from Gujarat to New Delhi. From New Delhi Railway Station, he reached the village by bus. He has screenshots of Seema on his mobile phone."
Upadhyay said Tejas revealed to the police during interrogation that Seema Haider had done black magic on him. The station in-charge noted that further investigation into the matter is underway.
32-year-old Seema Haider, hailing from Pakistan's Sindh province, had taken her children and left her home in Karachi in May 2023 to travel to India via Nepal. She hit the headlines in July that year when she was found to be living in the Greater Noida area with Sachin Meena.
Haider has four children with her Pakistani husband, Ghulam Haider, and a daughter with Sachin.
Amid the soaring tensions between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, Seema Haider feared deportation following India's order for Pakistani citizens to leave the country.
"I do not want to go to Pakistan," she reportedly said, appealing to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath to let her stay in India.
Seema Haider also claimed to have adopted Hinduism after her marriage with Sachin Meena, a PTI report had said. Her advocate, AP Singh, also said that she should be allowed to stay in India based on her marriage to Sachin, who is an Indian resident.
"Seema is no longer a Pakistani national. She married Sachin Meena, a resident of Greater Noida, and recently gave birth to their daughter, Bharti Meena. Her citizenship is now connected with her Indian husband, and therefore the Centre's directive should not apply to her," advocate Singh had said.

US Reaffirms Strong Support To India In Fight Against Terrorism: State Department
Last Updated: The multi-party delegation led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor met the US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau last week in Washington. The US reaffirmed its strong support for India's fight against terrorism and the bilateral strategic partnership during the visit of an Indian all-party parliamentary delegation last week, the State Department said. The multi-party delegation led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor met the US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau last week in Washington. State Department Spokesperson Tammy Bruce said at a press briefing on Tuesday that Landau reaffirmed the US' strong support to India in the fight against terrorism and the strategic partnership between the two countries. The delegation visited the US as part of the government's global outreach efforts after Operation Sindoor. India launched the operation in retaliation to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives. Responding to a question, Bruce said that a Pakistani parliamentary delegation led by Bilawal Bhutto Zardari met officials of the State Department, including Under Secretary for Political Affairs Allison Hooker, during its visit to Washington last week. Hooker reiterated the US support for the ongoing cessation of on-ground hostilities '– as you might imagine, thank God – between India and Pakistan", Bruce said, adding that they also discussed important issues about the US-Pakistan bilateral relationship, including counterterrorism cooperation. 'So that meeting occurred." When asked if the US received any assurance from Pakistan that it will take action against terrorists, Bruce said she was not going to discuss the details of those conversations. In response to a question on President Donald Trump offering to 'mediate" on the issue of Kashmir, Bruce said, 'Well, I – obviously, I can't speak to what's on the mind or the plans of the President. What I do know is that I think we all recognise that President Trump in each step that he takes, it's made to solve generational differences between countries, generational war." Bruce added that it should not 'surprise" anyone that he would want to 'manage" something like that. 'So, while I can't speak to his plans, the world knows his nature, and I can't speak to any details of what he might have in that regard…But it is an exciting time that if we can get to a point in that particular conflict..," Bruce said adding that it is a 'very interesting time." India has rejected any mediation related to the dispute on Jammu and Kashmir with Pakistan and maintains that Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are and will always remain an 'integral" part of the country.

Contribute now New Delhi: A delegation of parliamentarians from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI)(M) led by party general secretary M.A. Baby visited the areas affected by Pakistani shelling in Uri in Baramulla district of Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday (June 10). The delegation demanded that the compensation of Rs. 1.30 lakh that has been announced for each family should be reviewed. The area had come under heavy shelling during the skirmishes between troops of India and Pakistan after India launched Operation Sindoor to dismantle suspected terror infrastructure in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and mainland Pakistan. At least 20 border residents lost their lives while dozens were injured in the four-day aerial skirmishes between the armies of India and Pakistan last month. While speaking to reporters, Baby reiterated the demand for a special session of parliament to discuss the plight of border residents and said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rhetoric cannot compensate what people in border areas such as Poonch, Kupwara and Baramulla have suffered, reported The Economic Times. 'The situation here is highly distressing. Devastation and destruction created due to shelling is huge. The government has promised Rs. 1.30 lakh compensation for each family but this is very less considering the situation on ground,' said Baby. He added that the Prime Minister is refusing to discuss the plight of people in border areas in a special session of parliament, despite the Opposition's calls for the same.

India's global outreach: 'Strong support' - US on fight against Pakistan-backed terrorism
The United States reaffirmed its strong support for India in the fight against terrorism and the strategic partnership between the two countries. The delegation, with Congress MP Shashi Tharoor at its helm, held discussions with US deputy secretary of state Christopher Landau in Washington last week. While addressing Tuesday's press briefing, state department spokesperson Tammy Bruce confirmed that Landau emphasised America's firm support for India's anti-terrorism initiatives against the terrorism. "Deputy Secretary Landau met with the Indian parliamentary delegation last week, and he also reaffirmed the United States strong support of India in the fight against terrorism, and strategic partnership between those two countries," Bruce said. The delegation's US visit was part of the government's worldwide diplomatic initiative following Operation Sindoor, which India initiated in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terrorist incident that resulted in 26 casualties.

"So that meeting occurred." When questioned about Pakistani assurances regarding action against terrorists, Bruce declined to elaborate on the conversation details. Although India had declined that US brokered the mediation between New Delhi and Islamabad, the United States President continued to claim that he did that.

"So, while I can't speak to his plans, the world knows his nature, and I can't speak to any details of what he might have in that regard. You can call the White House. I have a feeling they would have plenty to say. But it is an exciting time that if we can get to a point in that particular conflict, thank God but also thank Secretary Rubio and President Trump and the Vice President. It is – it's a very interesting time. And so it's – every day brings something new, and I hope perhaps something like that can also get resolved before the President. "
