Geeta, the visually and hearing impaired girl who was stranded in Pakistan for 15 years, did not recognise a couple from Uttar Pradesh who had claimed that she could be their lost daughter, an official said today.

"Mohammad Issa, from UP, had submitted an application that Geeta resembles his daughter, Rubaida, who went missing 14 years ago. At that time she was 9-years-old," Indore collector P Narhari said.

But when Geeta met Issa and his wife here, she didn't recognise them, he said.   Many people have come forward claiming that Geeta was their long-lost daughter or relative but no one could establish the claim.

Geeta was reportedly 7-8 years old when she was found sitting alone on the Samjhauta Express at Lahore railway station by the Pakistan Rangers 15 years ago.
