The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) anti-human smuggling cell on Wednesday apprehended two individuals involved in human smuggling from Lahore.
The suspect, Abdul Shakoor, was found guilty of taking a hefty sum of Rs 3 million from a citizen with the promise to assist them with the counterfeit documents for traveling to the United States. Meanwhile, another accused, Rashid, took a significant amount of Rs 350,000 for facilitating a person in attempting to reach the UAE.
However, FIA’s timely operation thwarted their attempts to send the intended travelers to their desired foreign destinations. These individuals were involved in an illicit practice where they took money from citizens without having the necessary travel agent licenses.
