LAHORE: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has arrested eight wanted suspects during a crackdown at Allama Iqbal International Airport.
According to FIA spokesperson, on special directions of Director FIA Muhammad Usman, the FIA Immigration circle started action against such elements in the province as the Ministry of Interior directed all the departments concerned to take stern action against such criminals who are disgracing the county’s fame.
The FIA immigration circle arrested Shabir Ahmad, Haroon Butt, Saghir Mughal, Skindar Hayat and Muhammad Bilal from Lahore Airport while they were trying to flee from the country. The FIA teams found some blacklisted persons in the flights that were ready to take-off. The FIA team off-loaded them and handed them over to the special FIA anti-smuggling cell for further investigation. They were allegedly involved in sending people aboard on fake documents and through illegal ways.
All the accused persons were shifted to undisclosed place for investigation and soon they will be produced before the court.
