LANKAN HELD FOR POSSESSING FORGED PASSPORT

A native of Jaffna was taken into custody for possessing a forged passport when the immigration personnel at the Cochin International Airport in Nedumbassery grilled him when he was trying to leave India to Paris by Oman Air flight on Tuesday.

Emigration police superintendent K G James told Express that Jeevadas, 30, a Sri Lankan, possessed a passport in the name of Savari Muthu Peter, issued from Trichy passport office in 2007. Emigration personnel during the clearance proceedings found that he was actually Jeevadas and reached India in 2003.

As his passport issued from Sri Lanka was expired he managed to get a forged passport in the name of Savari from Trichy.

He reportedly confessed that he possessed a forged passport.

He would be handed over to Nedumbassery police to investigate whether he is involved in any terrorist activity or whether he is a member of the LTTE, the Express News Service reported.
