Indian police rescued a 40-year-old Russian woman, Nina Kutina, and her two young daughters from a remote forest cave in Karnataka state. The family had been living in isolation for over a week. Police are working to repatriate Kutina to Russia due to visa overstay. Kutina reportedly enjoyed a peaceful life in the cave, meditating and engaging in creative activities. She expressed disappointment at the disruption of her life in a message to friends.
