Mhur said children of her sister, Kaneez, aren't letting her speak to Kaneez to get required Objection Certificate (C).

"I am trying my best. Her children aren't allowing me to talk to her. She is a 93-year old woman and at that people talk something which makes sense so maybe because of that, children aren't willing. I don't kw what's happening, why aren't y allowing me to talk to her...If y allow me, she will be in a better frame of mind and we will be able to sort it out. She's t in India, she's in New Zealand."
