Addressing media at the Somajiguda Press Club, Fatima’s father, Ghulam Afzal, accompanied by advocate Vijay Kumar, shared the emotional and legal turmoil his daughter has endured since her marriage in 2007.
Marriage Allegedly Used as a Pathway to US Visa
Fatima married Dabiruddin and moved to the U.S., where she lived for only 58 days before conflicts arose. According to Afzal, it became clear that the marriage was a pretext for Dabiruddin to obtain a U.S. visa. Following disputes, Fatima returned to India, filed legal cases, and successfully divorced him.

Father Seeks Government Support to Repatriate Daughter
Despite working in the U.S. for over a decade, Fatima has reportedly been forced to pay alimony to her ex-husband under American law. Her father claims he is sending his pension money to help her meet the payments and fears she cannot return to India due to pending cases and legal complications.
“I appeal to both the Indian government and the Telangana government to take immediate action and help my daughter return safely,” said Afzal. “I also request the government to bring Dabiruddin to India to face the cases filed against him here.”
Legal and Human Rights Concerns Rise
The case raises serious concerns about cross-border marital abuse, misuse of immigration benefits, and the lack of protection for women caught in international legal limbo. Legal experts have called for stronger bilateral mechanisms to address such issues swiftly.
