The Federal Research Agency (FIA) has launched an offensive against human smuggers throughout the country based on the information obtained from illegal immigrants upon arrival from abroad.
According to a FIA spokesman, immigration staff deployed at Karachi airport interrogated four passengers who returned from several countries. They were identified as Ahsan Shabbir, Mu-Hammad Bashir, even Muhammad and Haseb Khaliq. They are residents of Gujranwala and Guja-Rat. Their names were included in the Pnil list. They arrived at Karachi airport through international flights. They had traveled from Pakistan to Saudi Arabia, Dubai and Azerbaijan in Umrah and visit Visas. Later, agents transported them to Mauritania through Senegal through illegal means and routes.
According to the initial investigation, they tried to send them to Spain by Marina. The passengers refused to go on the route of the sea due to the recent violent incidents and the accident of the ship and preferred to return to Pakistan. Illegal immigrants had established agreements with agents during millions of rupees for transporting them to Spain.
FIA is investigating illegal immigrants on agents and facilitators. According to the initial investigation, the agents belong to Peshawar, Bahawalpur and Gujranwala.
The FIA has launched an offensive against the agents after the passenger score.
The authorities have asked citizens to go abroad ensuring the visa of the Embassy of the country in question and do not deliver personal documents to irrelevant people. The FIA has also asked citizens to visit the nearest FIA circle to identify elements involved in human trafficking.
