In a significant breakthrough, Police have apprehended a Yemeni national, Bagdi Abdullah Mughed Saad (42), in Pune. Saad is accused of assisting four Thai women in obtaining counterfeit Aadhaar and PAN cards.

The anti-human trafficking squad in Thane had previously arrested a 44-year-old Thai woman, allegedly involved in running a prostitution ring from a local hotel. During the raid, three more Thai women were rescued.

Further investigations revealed that Saad facilitated the procurement of fake identification documents for the women, who continued living in India despite expired passports and visas. Authorities have now invoked the Foreigners National Act while upgrading the original FIR.
