On Thursday, she filed a report with the Golabari police station in Howrah district
Ishrat Jahan, one of the petitioners against triple talaq and a resident of Howrah in West Bengal, had filed a police complaint on Thursday morning that two of her children had gone missing. However, the police found Jahan's children by Thursday evening.
On Thursday, she filed a report with the Golabari police station in Howrah district. "My two kids have gone missing. I have filed a complaint with the police and I hope they get my kids back," Jahan said. "Yes we have received a complaint, and are looking into it," said a senior official of the district police.
When Jahan woke up on Thursday morning, she found her eldest daughter and her youngest son missing from her Howrah home where they lived. When she asked her in-laws they said that they were taken away by her husband. Unable to contact her husband, she filed a complaint.
"The two had come to me, unable to live with my husband because his second wife used to ill-treat them. I miss my children and want them back," Jahan added. About a month ago, of the four children of Jahan and her husband, two had come back to Jahan while two daughters chose to stay with their father in Bihar.
Ishrat was one of the petitioners against triple talaq saying that her husband, Mohammad Murtaza Ansari, an embroider, had divorced her by uttering the word 'talaq' three times, over the phone in April 2015.
A five-judge bench of the Supreme Court, had struck down the practice of instant triple talaq on August 22. The father returned the children later in the evening. Police said that they had called Jahan's husband and baffled by all the news of missing children on media, he returned the kids to Golabari police station.
Jahan complained that after her marriage in 2001 she had suffered a lot of atrocities from her husband and in-laws for giving birth to three girls. They lived in Howrah, and later her husband went to his native place in Bihar where he remarried. Soon after, he moved to Dubai in search of employment and from there he divorced Jahan over the phone.
