Woman nabbed with 3 passports

Kolkata: A woman, suspected to be a human trafficker, was arrested at Kolkata airport after she arrived from Bangkok on Sunday night.
Police found three passports, Pakistani phone numbers and anti-India documents' in her possession.
The suspect had used an Indian passport, under the name Jyoti Rana', for the Air India Express flight from Malaysia via Bangkok that touched down in Kolkata at 9 pm on Sunday. She claims to hail from Uttamnagar, in the outskirts of Delhi. The three passports confiscated from her were in the names of Jyoti Rana, Mehrunnesa and Nisha Sharma.
According to sources, the Intelligence Bureau (IB) had alerted airports about her three days ago. The IB had tracked her in Bangkok and found that she would be returning to Delhi via Kolkata.
Police said that the lookout notice against her was issued after a complaint at Uttam Nagar police station about her involvement with forgery of passports.
She insists to be an NGO worker from Delhi, but police don't buy her story. The "suave and soft-spoken woman" was proving to be a tough nut to crack, said sources.
Police are also examining if the 37-year-old had any links with terrorist outfits, an official said.
