She was stranded in Pakistan since March 6 due to the coronavirus lockdown

Nabihah Iqbal, a London-based musician who got stranded in Karachi last month due to the COVID-19 lockdown, has left for the UK, The Guardian reported on Thursday.

According to the newspaper, Nabihah arrived in Pakistan to visit her critically ill grandfather.

The report said days before she left the UK, burglars targeted her studios and took away many things including a laptop containing two years' worth of original music.

Speaking to The Guardian on call, she said "I’ve never been in a situation before where I’ve been in a foreign country and I have literally zero idea about when I can go home,”

The newspaper reported that she was due to arrive back in the UK on Thursday after securing a place on a charter flight for stranded Brits.
