 Anara Devi and her husband Ramraj Gautam, residents of  Thammohan village of Pratapgarh district, claim that the girl,  addressed as Geeta in Pakistan, is their daughter Savita who went missing in 2004, media reports quoted IG Law and order A Satish Ganesh as saying.

Anara Devi claimed she had left Savitha, then four-year-old, with her brother Narain Das in Chhapra district of Bihar in 2004 and few days later she went missing.

She claims that  she first recognised the girl on news channels. She then nformed the Pratapgarh DM and SP about it.

Geeta or Savitha as is being claimed, is now in Karachi, being looked after by a social welfare organisation.

The district administration has been asked to verify the claims of the woman and get in touch with the police in Chhapra to check if the missing complaint was lodged with them, the IG said.
