The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) arrested a passenger at Jinnah International Airport, Karachi, for entering Pakistan on forged documents.

According to FIA officials, immigration staff at the airport apprehended the passenger, identified as Muhammad Subhan, who presented a fake visa in his passport.

Subhan, hailing from Rahim Yar Khan, was found with a counterfeit Saudi Arabian visa, and a forensic report confirmed that the visa lacked essential security features. Initial investigations revealed that he obtained the fake visa for Rs250,000. He had been transferred to the Anti-Human Trafficking Circle in Karachi.
