Mumbai Crime Branch Detains 6 Afghan Nationals Living Illegally Under Fake Identities

The Mumbai Crime Branch has taken action against six Afghan nationals who were found to be living illegally in India using fake identities. The operation followed confidential intelligence indicating that Afghan citizens were residing unlawfully in the Colaba and Dharavi areas of Mumbai.

Tip-off Leads to Coordinated Operation

Acting on the intelligence input, two separate teams from Unit 1 and Unit 5 of the Crime Branch were formed to verify the information. After conducting discreet surveillance, police laid a trap and apprehended the six Afghan nationals from the Fort, Colaba, and Dharavi areas.

Fake Names and False Documents
