Three Nigerians have been arrested in Delhi, India, for allegedly staying in the country without valid immigration documents.
The Times of India reported on Sunday that the Delhi Police arrested the men for “allegedly staying in India without valid documents” and subsequently transferred them to a detention centre.
The arrests were made on October 31 during a “verification drive in southwest Delhi’s Dwarka”, according to the report, which cited officials.
The police identified the men as Bartholomew Uwaebuka Iloegbunem, Konan Okocha, also known as Konan Brice Kousaai, and Ndubuisi Charles Nwabufor.
The three Nigerians reportedly “failed to produce documents authorising their stay in the country” when they were questioned by the police.
Following their arrest, they were “produced before the foreigners regional registration office” and later transferred to the Sewa Sadan detention centre in Lampur, the report said.
