Mumbai woman arrested for changing passport arrival date to hide return from parents
immigration officials stopped her from boarding a flight to Toronto. The arrest followed the discovery of irregularities in her passport, which had been tampered with to hide certain details about her travel.
Satveer Kaur, a resident of Punjab, was set to travel to Toronto to join a new job after completing her higher studies in Canada. However, when officials examined her passport, they found that the arrival date of September 28 had been deleted. The police later revealed that Kaur had removed this date to prevent her parents from knowing when she had returned to India.
According to a police official, «She said that her parents were unaware about her arrival on Sept 28. She did not want her parents to know about it as she had gone to meet her friend.»
Case filed for cheating and forgery
Kaur was stopped from boarding the flight and is now facing charges of cheating and forgery. She had returned to India after five years of studying in Canada and was attempting to resume her life there with a new job.
This incident follows a similar case in August, where a 25-year-old fashion merchandising student was detained at an international airport. She had removed pages from her passport to hide evidence of a past trip to Thailand. The student had claimed to be ill during a period when she had requested sick leave from her college, intending to conceal the trip from her educational institution.
