Jagdispur SDO Kumar Pankaj and BDO Prabhakar Kumar visited Bahuara village on Friday and found that Choudhary in truth hails from the village.
"Choudhary is a resident of Bahuara village. His wife Parvati Choudhary lives with her son Lakshman Choudhary at the village. Lakshman has left for Gujarat in serach of his missing father. Although Pakistani officials arrested Choudhary on espionage charges, he is actually an innocent fisherman," the BDO said.
