he Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Immigration offloaded four passengers from a Saudi-bound flight at Islamabad Airport during secondary profiling, foiling a attempt to reach Europe illegally under the guise of a religious pilgrimage.
During the initial scrutiny of travel documents and a forensic check of their mobile phones, officials discovered that the group was traveling with their mother under the pretext of taking her to perform Umrah. One passenger was found to have a prior deportation record from Turkey, while two others possessed visit visas for Azerbaijan.
Mobile chat records retrieved by the FIA revealed their full plan: after arriving in Saudi Arabia, the passengers intended to send their mother back to Pakistan while continuing their own illegal journey toward Europe via a Baku and Serbia route. Authorities intervened at the airport to halt the travel attempt before the flight took off.
