LAHORE: Two minors were presented before a Lahore High Court bench on Friday alongside their mother and grandfather on account of being left at their neighbour's house amid a conflict between their parents, Express News reported.

Amna, 5 and Umer, 6 were reportedly left at their neighbour's home following a dispute between their parents, in which their father, Adnan Zafar, allegedly beat up their mother, Seema Bibi, and kicked her out of the house.

Upon questioning in court about how a mother could leave her children, Seema claimed that she was pregnant and was beaten up by her husband and kicked out and was not able to take her children with her.

The children were eventually taken to their aunt's home while their mother went to her parents home.

Zafar, who was residing in Pakistan on a visiting visa, had returned to Dubai. A petition was filed on behalf of the children and the court has now ordered for the children to be handed back to their mother.
