The long pending desire of Hadiya, a Kerala woman at the centre of an alleged love-jihad case, was fulfilled on Wednesday when she spoke to her husband over the phone.
A day after she arrived in the city to continue studies+ at the Sivaraj Homeopathy medical college as directed by the Supreme Court, she spoke to her husband using the phone of the college dean.
“Hadiya talked to Jahan (her husband) for a while from my mobile phone, after I, as local guardian, asked her whether she was interested in talking or meeting anybody,” the college dean G Kannan told reporters.
The 25-year-old was brought to the institution amid tight security by Kerala police from Coimbatore, about 170 km from here last evening.
Earlier when reporters asked about her husband Shafin Jahan, Hadiya said she had no contact with him for the last few months as she did not have a mobile phone and the only people she spoke to were her parents.
“I am very eager to speak to my husband+ ,” said Hadiya, who was in the news recently after her conversion to Islam and marriage with the Muslim youth in Kerala.
The dean said: “She appeared to be relieved from depression after talking to him (husband). There is no restriction imposed on her to talk or to meet anybody.”
Hadiya also expressed regret for the tense situation prevailing in the college and inconvenience to students due to her, Kannan said.
