Two Indian nationals, aged 45 and 32, have been arrested on suspicion of forging Bahraini visit visas, duping victims into believing they could renew residency permits in a neighbouring country, according to a statement from the Interior Ministry, Monday.
The suspects allegedly charged individuals for the counterfeit visas, the ministry stated. An investigation conducted by the Nationality, Passport and Residence Affairs’ Directorate of Search and Follow Up, alongside the Anti-Cybercrime Directorate, revealed that the accused had been promoting their fraudulent services via a social media platform.
The NPRA confirmed that legal action has been initiated, with the case now referred to the Public Prosecution.
