New Delhi, April 4 Two Bangladeshi women, including one who had a graduate degree, were apprehended for illegally residing in Delhi, police said on Saturday.
The accused were intercepted on April 1 in the Shalimar Bagh area following a tip-off about foreign nationals working as domestic helpers, they said.
During questioning, the women initially claimed to be Indian citizens and said they were employed in households in the area. However, their inconsistent replies raised suspicion, prompting further verification, police said.
Subsequent investigation, including scrutiny of documents and digital evidence, revealed that both women were Bangladeshi nationals residing here without valid travel or identity papers.
Police said one of the accused is a graduate who had come to Delhi in search of better earnings.
The women have been produced before the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), and deportation proceedings have been initiated, police added.
