Passport Tearing at Indian Airports....Read it Carefully.!!!


Be Careful at the Indian Airports, This is a well organized conspiracy by Indian Immigration, Police, Customs and Air India staff with networking at all the Indian International Airports.. Be careful when ever you give your passport to Immigration/ Customs/Air India staff. The pass port can be easily tampered and can create trouble to you. They have found easy way of making money from NRIs. This is the way it works:

At the time of the passenger's departure, if the passenger is not looking at the officer while he is stamping the exit, the officer very cleverly tears away one of the page from the passport. When the passenger leaves the immigration counter, the case is reported on his computer terminal with full details. Now all over India they have got full details of the passenger with Red Flag flashing on the Passport number entered by the departure immigration officer. They have made their money by doing above.

On arrival next time, he is interrogated.

Subject to the passenger's period of stay abroad, his income and standing etc., the price to get rid of the problem is settled by the Police and Immigration people. If someone argues, his future is spoiled because there are always some innocent fellows who think the honesty is the basis of getting justice in India .

Please advise every passenger to be careful at the airport. Whenever they hand over the passport to the counters of Air India , or immigration or the customs, they must be vigilant, should not remove eyes from the passport even if the officer in front tries to divert their attention.

Also, please pass this information to all friends, media men and important politicians. Every month 20-30 cases are happening all over India to rob the NRIs the minute he lands. Similar case has happened with Aramco's Arifuddin. He was traveling with his family. They had six passports. They
Got the visa of America and decided to go via Hyderabad from Jeddah. They reached Hyderabad .Stayed about a month and left for the States. When they reached the States, the page of the American visa on his wife's passport was missing. At the time of departure from Hyderabad it was there, the whole family had to return to Hyderabad helplessly. On arrival at Bombay back, they were caught by the police and now it is over 2 months, they are running after the Police, Immigration officers and the Courts. On going in to details with him, he found out the following: One cannot imagine, neither can believe, that the Indian Immigration dept can play such a nasty game to harass the innocent passengers.

All the passengers traveling to & fro India via Bombay and Hyderabad must be aware of this conspiracy. Every month 15 to 20cases are taking place, at each mentioned airport, of holding the passengers in the crime of tearing away the passport pages. On interviewing some of them, none of them was aware of what had happened. They don't know why, when and who tore away the page from the middle of the passport. One can imagine the sufferings of such people at the hands of the immigration, police and the court procedures in India after that. The number of cases is increasing in the last 2-3 years. People who are arriving at the immigration, they are questioned and their passports are being held and they have to go in interrogation. Obviously, the conspiracy started about 2 to 3 years ago, now the results are coming. Some of the Air India counter staff too is involved in this conspiracy.

KINDLY SEND THIS TO AS MANY AS YOUR FRIENDS ACROSS THE WORLD AND ALSO REQUEST THEM TO CHECK THE PASSPORT AT THE CHECKING COUNTERS AND BEFORE LEAVING THE AIRPORT



Everybody read this very, very carefully please.

Getting to know of this, I am now even scared at the thought of leaving my COPR, passports and other documents unattended at canadian counters when I land....some of the friends may term this a negative approach...but u can understand the seriousness of the consequences and a natural tendency to be apprehensive...comments invited from friends about this view also !!

Good information Juner. I will take care of the same when my turn comes, and I advise all forum members to read this and to bring the same to knowledge of others who are not part of the forum.
 
Well, I would like to mention a incident which happened with me at Hyderabad airport.

I wanted to convert some foreign currency which I was having, I went to foreign exchange counter, the guy asked my passport for photocopy. I was :o shocked to see the way he took the photocopy, it literally loosen the binding of my passport.

So Guys, be careful and it's important to keep an eye while handing out passport.

Many people advice us once you leave/arrive India that becarefull at Mumbai Intl airport. Even it's true that Mumbai customs and immigration department it's not well too. I have many people in USA UK Canada and another countries but I heard about Mumbai airport custom and immigration department harrassment to mostly USA based Indians once they arrived to Mumbai airport they force to open all bags, look each and every items etc. many people talk but nothing officially printed or not even in media printed news but we have to just take care of passport at this airport.

Dear srid_a,
I wish this is not true as u pointed out...but we should not forget the good old wise qoute :- "There is no smoke without a fire !"
So let us tighten our belts and be extra cautious while handing over our passports with maple leaf to any unscruplous person ! It is in our benefit to safeguard our own interest...isnt it?
