FIA arrests passenger with fake travel documents

Karachi: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Immigration on Sunday arrested a traveler who had bogus documents and had come from Iraq to Pakistan.

Samiullah was arrested by the FIA team at Jinnah International Airport, an FIA spokesperson reported.

During immigration processing, the passenger's documents were discovered to be fraudulent.

The FIA spokesperson claimed that Samiuallah entered Pakistan using a fictitious Iraqi visa and added that he had previously been to Iran, where he had obtained a visa from Iraq with the aid of an agent, in July 2022.

The FIA official added that the accused has been sent to the Karachi Anti-Human Trafficking Circle for additional legal proceedings.

An Afghan woman was deported last month by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) immigration officers as she boarded a flight to France at the Peshawar airport after it was discovered that her passport was a fake.
