“Acting on a tipoff about illegal migrants seeking shelter in Mahipalpur, the team conducted a swift verification drive,” said Amit Goel, Deputy Commissioner of Police (southwest).
When the duo was questioned regarding their documentation, they failed to produce valid identification proof or a visa.
Upon sustained interrogation, they admitted to having entered India over 11 years ago and overstaying after their visas expired.
“After completing all legal and codal formalities, the Southwest District Police initiated the deportation process in coordination with the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), Delhi,” the officer said.
