A Muslim woman Afreen Begum was held captive by her in-laws & tortured in Somalia since July 2018. India doesn't have an embassy in Somalia & PM Modi personally intervened to help rescue her. The ground operatives of the Indian High Commission in Nairobi conducted the rescue operation. As per the Somalian law, a mother cannot travel without her children without the father's permission. She & her 3 girls will land at Mumbai airport.
