FAISALABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has arrested the mastermind of a trafficking ring that lured women to Saudi Arabia under the guise of Umrah, only to coerce them into begging upon arrival.
According to an FIA spokesperson, the accused, Muhammad Ghafoor, was apprehended during a raid in Chak No 217. The suspect, along with his accomplices, deceived innocent women and smuggled them to Saudi Arabia.
Investigations have revealed that the gang had sent at least five women abroad, forcing them into begging and later demanding a ransom of Rs500,000 per woman to facilitate their return to Pakistan. The FIA has placed the names of gang’s other accomplices on the stop list to prevent their escape from the country.
