KARACHI (Kashmir English): The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) officials at Karachi Airport foiled an attempt by two youths belonging to Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) to illegally reach Belarus on a visit visa.

The passengers were traveling to Azerbaijan on a visit visa via Gulf airline flight FZ330. Passenger Asad Rehman’s passport was tampered with and visa pages were missing from the passport.
Fake protector stamps were also recovered from the passengers’ luggage. Pictures of fake work visas for Azerbaijan, police certificates, protectors, and bank transactions were also recovered from the passengers’ mobile phones.
According to the FIA spokesperson, the passengers were later to go to Belarus illegally from Azerbaijan.
In this context, each passenger paid Rs1.4 million to the agent through cash and bank transactions.
Later, the passengers were shifted to the Anti-Human Trafficking Circle Karachi for further legal action.
It should be remembered that two years ago, dozens of Pakistanis died in a boat accident in Greece, including youths from Kotli Khoiratta, after which strict measures were taken against illegal travel abroad.
