Announcing the recovery of the two sisters, DIG-South Irfan Baloch tweeted: “South police are able to recover two minor girls kidnapped from Seaview on Eid holiday.”

A police spokesperson said in a statement that three-year-old Anabia and two-year-old Bushra had gone missing from Seaview on April 24, the third day of Eid, and a kidnapping case was registered at the Darakshan police station on April 26.
