FAISALABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) offloaded two passengers at the Faisalabad Airport, who were attempting to travel to Azerbaijan using fake educational certificates and study visas on Sunday.

According to FIA Immigration officials, the suspects have been identified as Umair Yousaf and Usman Ali. Both individuals were handed over to the FIA Anti-Human Trafficking Circle Faisalabad for further legal action.

Investigations revealed that Umair Yousaf had obtained a study visa using a fake matriculation certificate. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ stamp on his educational documents was also counterfeit.
