Man held at airport for forging date of birth on his passport

Mumbai: A 56-year-old man from Tripura was held at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport early on Thursday morning for allegedly forging his birth date on his passport. The man, Abdul Majid Munshi, had flown to Mumbai to catch an Air India flight to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for employment, the police said.
Munshi was lined up to clear immigration when the alleged fraud was detected, the police said. An official from the Bureau of Immigration who examined Munshi’s passport found that it did not match records fed into the department’s system, the police said.
Munshi, the police said, was then asked to step aside and detained for questioning. He was then taken to Sahar police station and booked for cheating and forgery. “We have got custody of the accused and are questioning him further,” said Baburao Mukhedkar, senior inspector, Sahar police station.
