Parents and relatives have also heaved a sigh of relief upon getting back the children. "It is a matter of immense joy for the whole family upon seeing our children again," said Nazir Ahmad, grandfather of two brothers Imran, and Zeeshan, aged six and four, adding that previous attempts at getting back the children had all gone in vain.
