FIA nabs Afghan national at Islamabad Airport over fake residence card – SUCH TV
Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) on Thursday thwarted an attempt by an Afghan national to travel to Europe using a forged residence card, intercepting the passenger at Islamabad Airport and taking him into custody.
According to FIA officials, the traveller identified as Janat Gul Niazi was scheduled to fly to France on flight PK-749 when immigration staff detected that he was carrying a fake Greek residence card.
Niazi, who hails from Afghanistan, was immediately offloaded from the flight after the document was found to be counterfeit.
The suspect has since been handed over to the FIA Anti-Human Trafficking Circle, Islamabad, where further investigation and legal proceedings are underway.
