Madurai: A 48-year-old Sri Lankan national was arrested at Madurai airport on Saturday minutes before boarding a flight to Sri Lanka on a fake passport. He had obtained the passport by forging documents to show as if he was an Indian national.
The accused was identified as S Jeyakanthan, 48, a Sri Lankan Tamil native of Jaffna. While immigration police led by inspector Victor detained him, Jeyakanthan was later handed over to the Perungudi police. Preliminary inquiries revealed that Jeyakanthan, in Sri Lanka, had married a woman from Karaikudi in Sivaganga district in 2003. After living one month in Sri Lanka, he came to Tamil Nadu along with his wife on spouse visa. While Jeyankanthan overstayed in India, the couple shifted to Tuticorin, where he was involved in poultry business. With his Sri Lankan passport being expired, he obtained fake documents like Aadhar and driving license. He later obtained passport using the documents.
