Two Chinese Nationals Arrested In Bihar For 'Sneaking' Into India Second Time Via Nepal

The immigration department official said the Chinese duo had earlier, too, tried to sneak into the Indian territory on July 2 which they claimed to have done inadvertently.

New Delhi: Two Chinese nationals were arrested by immigration officials in Bihar for allegedly sneaking into the Indian territory through Nepal, news agency PTI reported. According to the report, this is the second such incident in less than a month.

As per Assistant Foreigner Regional Registration Officer SK Singh, the duo was arrested at the Raxaul border outpost in East Champaran district on Saturday. The arrested accused have been identified as Zhao Jing and Fu Cong and they hailed from Jaoxing province of China.

According to the officer, the Chinese nationals were found to be travelling without valid documents and they claimed to have left their passports at a hotel in Birganj, right across the border, where they had stayed the previous night. “They had reached the border by an autorickshaw and tried to cross over on foot,” PTI quoted Singh as saying.

The immigration department official further said that according to records, the Chinese duo had earlier, too, tried to sneak into the Indian territory on July 2 which they claimed to have done inadvertently.

They had then been let off and their passports were returned with "entry refused" stamped on these, the official said.

"Their repeated attempts to enter the area raises suspicions. Hence, they have been handed over to the local police for further investigation and action,” Assistant Foreigner Regional Registration Officer further said.

"Motive behind their move could not be established. Interrogation is being done," Hindustan Times quoted East Champaran superintendent of police (SP) Kantesh Kumar Mishra as saying.
“In the course of the interrogation, they demonstrated strange behaviour. While one of them was fluent in English, the statements given by them are inconsistent and self-contradictory,” HT quoted another immigration official as saying on condition of anonymity.
