After illegally entering India, she allegedly broke the Pakistani Sim card, deleted all the data, and tried to break the phone she used in Pakistan.

The cops have recovered this phone and are reportedly trying to retrieve the lost data. Meanwhile, another broken phone and a broken Sim card have been recovered from Sachin. It is also being looked upon, sources told Firstpost.

Apart from this, the ATS cops, during their intense questioning with Seema, made her read a few lines in English. As per sources, Seema not just read the lines but also maintained fluency.
