Not sure if it is true, but wouldn't hurt to be careful. You know it can
happen!!
BE ALERT..!!!! Passport Tearing at Indian Airports....Read it Carefully.!!!
Dear All,
Read it Carefully... . BE ALERT!!!
Be Careful at the Indian Airports, This is a well organized conspiracy by
Indian Immigration, Police, Customs and Air India staff with networking at all
the Indian International Airports.. Be careful when ever you give your passport
to Immigration/ Customs/Air India staff. The pass port can be easily tampered
and can create trouble to you. They have found easy way of making money from
NRIs. This is the way it works:
At the time of the passenger's departure, if the passenger is not looking at
the officer while he is stamping the exit, the officer very cleverly tears away
one of the page from the passport. When the passenger leaves the immigration
counter, the case is reported on his computer terminal with full details. Now
all over India they have got full details of the passenger with Red Flag
flashing on the Passport number entered by the departure immigration officer.
They have made their money by doing above.
On arrival next time, he is interrogated.
Subject to the passenger's period of stay abroad, his income and standing etc.,
the price to get rid of the problem is settled by the Police and Immigration
people. If someone argues, his future is spoiled because there are always some
innocent fellows who think the honesty is the basis of getting justice in India
....
Please advise every passenger to be careful at the airport. Whenever they hand
over the passport to the counters of Air India , or immigration or the customs,
they must be vigilant, should not remove eyes from the passport even if the
officer in front tries to divert their attention.
Also, please pass this information to all friends, media men and important
politicians. Every month 20-30 cases are happening all over India to rob the
NRIs the minute he lands. Similar case has happened with Aramco's Arifuddin. He
was travelling with his family. They had six passports. They
got the visa of America and decided to go via Hyderabad from Jeddah. They
reached Hyderabad . Stayed about
a month and left for the States. When they reached the States, the page of the
American visa on his wife's passport was missing. At the time of departure from
Hyderabad it was there, the whole family had to return to Hyderabad helplessly.
On arrival at Bombay back, they were caught by the police and now it is over 2
months, they are running after the Police, Immigration officers and the Courts.
On going in to details with him, he found out the following: One cannot
imagine, neither can believe, that the Indian Immigration dept can play such a
nasty game to harass the innocent passengers.
All the passengers travelling to & fro India via Bombay and Hyderabad must be
aware of this conspiracy. Every month 15 to 20 cases are taking place, at each
mentioned airport, of holding the passengers in the crime of tearing away the
passport pages.
On interviewing some of them, none of them was aware of what had happened. They
don't know why, when and who tore away the page from the middle of the
passport. One can imagine the sufferings of such people at the hands of the
immigration, police and the court procedures in India after that. The number of
cases is increasing in the last 2-3 years. People who are arriving at the
immigration, they are questioned and their passports are being held and they
have to go in interrogation. Obviously, the conspiracy started about 2 to 3
years ago, now the results are coming. Some of the Air India counter staff too
is involved in this conspiracy.
KINDLY SEND THIS TO AS MANY AS YOUR FRIENDS ACROSS THE WORLD AND ALSO REQUEST
THEM TO CHECK THE PASSPORT AT THE CHECKING COUNTERS AND BEFORE LEAVING THE
AIRPORT
