On May 14, when the whole world was celebrating Mother's Day, Navi Mumbai mum Somiya Yunus Basar was fighting for her children's custody at a court in Mozambique. Her three children were smuggled to the African country by their father and Somiya's former husband citizen Abdul Gaffar Abdul Majid Tarmamahomed, in August 2016. Last week, after waiting for over nine months, Somiya had a joyful, if short-lived reunion with her children.
