In 2013, a Bangladeshi woman named Halima found herself alone in Islamabad after being separated from her family for four decades. Unable to communicate in Urdu, Halima was unable to share details about her identity or family. She was placed in an Edhi Center for temporary shelter, where she remained for several years. The Lahore Safe City Authority took on the task of locating Halima's relatives, working closely with local authorities to gather information.
By using the ancestral village and family names Halima provided, the team managed to trace her son and nephew in Bangladesh. This breakthrough, after years of separation, enabled officials to establish contact with Halima's family, bringing them together after four long decades.
