PESHAWAR, Dec 6: The immigration staff at Peshawar airport arrested on Tuesday a man who was trying to board a Dubai-bound Emirates Airline flight on a passport stolen from Gujrat, a senior official told Dawn. When Mohammad Zeb, resident of Swat presented his passport, the Personal Identification and Secured Compression Evaluation System found that it was a stolen document, Assistant Director (immigration) Inamullah Gandapur said.
He said that the passport had been stolen from Gujrat more than four years ago but Zeb claimed that it was issued to him by the Pakistani Consulate in Dubai in 2,002.
The stamp of the consulate was prominent on the passport but they could not say whether it was bogus or genuine, said the official.
He said that they had sent the accused to the FIA passport circle to investigate how he got the stolen passport.
