23 Passengers Offloaded While Departing to Bahrain on Work Visas

Lahore (Pakistan News) Twenty-three individuals traveling to Bahrain on work visas have been offloaded.

According to the spokesperson of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), all passengers were traveling on the same flight to Bahrain; however, discrepancies were found in their statements during initial investigations.

Initially, the passengers claimed they had obtained employment through relatives, but detailed scrutiny revealed this claim to be false and misleading.

The spokesperson further stated that the passengers later admitted they had engaged agents to secure jobs abroad. It was also found that none of them had a proper foreign service agreement.

According to the FIA, the passengers were unable to clearly explain their employment details, due to which they were stopped at the immigration stage and offloaded.

The spokesperson has advised citizens to fulfill all legal requirements before traveling abroad and to obtain employment only through verified and authorized sources.
