       The passengers used fake identities with an intent to travel to Sweden from Dubai, where they had reached from Iran after paying Rs2 million each to an agent, according to Mian Kareem.

       During transit in Dubai, the Emirates security officials apprehended them and sent them back to Pakistan.

       The suspects were later handed over to the anti-human trafficking cell of Gujranwala FIA zone.

       Meanwhile, a Philippine national woman was refused entry into Pakistan at Sialkot airport on Monday the last.

       As per the FIA officials, the passenger, Daisy Gomez, arrived here from Philippines via Dubai and presented his passport (No P9538238B) for immigration clearance. However, as she had no visa to enter Pakistan, she was deported.
