“I had traveled from Makkah to Madinah to catch a flight. It got delayed by six hours. Each of my bags was thoroughly checked on the airport, but it never reached Lahore with the flight,” one of the protesting pilgrims said, adding that they haven’t received a clear answer on when their bags will come to Pakistan.
