Ahead of the November 27 hearing in an alleged 'love jihad' case, Kerala woman Hadiya arrived in Delhi on Saturday to appear before the Supreme Court.
Before leaving from Kochi Airport, Hadiya told reporters, "I am a Muslim. I want to go with my husband. Nobody forced me to convert."
24-year-old Hadiya has been in the headlines after she converted to Islam following her marriage to Shafin Jahan.
Earlier, the Kerala High Court had sent her with her parents K. M. Asokan and Ponnamma, who alleged that her marriage is a case of 'love jihad', and annulled her marriage to Shafin.
The case is under the consideration of the apex court, which had ordered the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to look into it.
