Trio Arrested in Bengaluru for Fake Identity

Three Pakistani nationals, a family, were arrested in Peenya for using fake identities, following a similar incident in Jigani. Authorities are investigating to uncover any further individuals with false documents across Karnataka and India.

In a significant development, police authorities in Peenya have detained three individuals believed to be Pakistani nationals, sources confirmed on Thursday.

The arrests follow closely after the apprehension of four others on the outskirts of Bengaluru, specifically in Jigani, raising concerns over the use of counterfeit identities.

The trio, identified as a family comprising a husband, wife, and their daughter, are alleged to have employed fake identification, mirroring the Jigani detainees. The police have intensified investigations to trace others potentially embedded across Karnataka and India using similar means.
