Two Bangladeshi nationals who had been living in the national capital since 2012, now been detained by the Safdarjung Enclave police station. This happened during a verification movement in the South West District
The people who got detained are husband and wife. They have been identified as 54-year-old Liyacat and 39-year-old wife Nasreen and were deported to Bangladesh through the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO).
The couple, who were residents of Kalakabadi village in the Bagerhat District of Bangladesh, were detained during the drive in Green Park, where their documents were verified. Earlier, two Bangladeshi nationals who had been illegally residing in the national capital were apprehended and deported by the Delhi Police during two separate verification drives by the South West District Police.
Notably, Delhi police have identified more than 25 “illegal” immigrants from Bangladesh and have started the process to deport them to their home country, an official said. Special Commission of Police Law and Order Madhup Tiwari said that the drive to identify “illegal” immigrants from Bangladesh was being carried out on the orders of Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena.
“Following the LG’s direction, we have launched a campaign in which we have started identifying illegal immigrants and deporting them. In Zone 2, the Southern zone, we have identified more than 25 such illegal immigrants so far and have also started the work of deporting them. At the same time, we had a big success in the South district, where we busted a racket in which we not only saw their route to come to India but also caught the people involved in it, who used to make their Aadhar cards here illegally,” Tiwari said.
