Two Bangladeshi nationals who tried to escape to Australia using forged visas and passports have been arrested by Immigration Department officials at the arrival terminal of the Bandaranaike International Airport today.
One them was 50 years old and the other is 24-years.
The two had arrived at the Katunayake airport where they presented their documents to the Katunayake Airport Immigration Department counter to enter Sri Lanka. The officer found that the visa sticker used in their two passports were illegally removed.
Officials had checked their luggage and found their mobile phones in them, and found the photos of the two Australian visas that had been affixed to their passports.
Further checking the luggage, the immigration department officers had managed to find the two fake visas that had been removed a few moments ago.
One of them said that he had done the affixing and saving of these visas on the advice of a Bangladeshi broker, and that he had traveled through several countries and after coming back to Bangladesh, he would be given the necessary visas and air tickets to go to Australia.
