The man was released by Pakistan authorities on February 14 at the international border at Wagah and handed over to Khandwa police on Monday.
A 44-year-old man who went missing from Khandwa in Madhya Pradesh five years ago and was later jailed in Pakistan after inadvertently crossing into that country has returned to India, an official said on Monday.
Raju Pindare, a resident of Indhawadi, has been handed back to Indian authorities and a four-member team comprising policemen and a medical professional has been sent to Amritsar to bring him here, additional collector Shankarlal Singhade said.
"Information about Pindare being handed over to India was received by us through Amritsar's Red Cross Society. He will be handed over to his family after legal formalities are completed," Singhade added.
Subhash Sharma, Project Manager, Red Cross Society of Amritsar, said Pindare was released by Pakistan authorities on February 14 at the international border at Wagah and handed over to Khandwa police on Monday.
