An Indian national has been arrested here for not possessing travel and visa documents, a media report said on Sunday. Sheikh Nabi Ahmed, who hailed from Jogeshwari East in Mumbai, was taken into custody on May 19 after he failed to produce any travel or visa documents, the report said.
The arrest came days after the International Court of Justice stayed the execution of Indian national Kulbhushan Jadhav, who was sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court on charges of “involvement in espionage and sabotage activities” against the country.
According to the police, Ahmed was walking along Nazimuddin Road in Sector F-8 when he was stopped at a check post. Police demanded to check his visa documents after he told them that he was an Indian. However, Ahmed could not produce any document and was taken into police custody, the report said. He has been booked for illegal entry and stay in the country under Foreigners Act 1946 and sent to jail on judicial remand.
An official of the Indian High Commission, however, said that the mission does not have any information about the arrest so far.
