Jeddah, Jul 31 ( Arab News): A 40-year-old Pakistani was arrested in Jeddah’s Al-Faisaliyah district on charges of swindling another Pakistani national of 5,000 riyals on the pretext that he would facilitate the travel procedures for his mother who was illegally staying in the Kingdom, the Jeddah police announced on Friday.
The police said the swindler promised his compatriot that he would enable his mother to go through the airport with no trouble, but when he failed to keep his word the victim took the matter to the immigration authorities. The police warned foreigners not to fall prey to visa and passport swindlers.
