In Mumbai, a 47-year-old man named Wilson Sunil D'Silva has been arrested by the Sahar Police for allegedly attempting to traffic a woman to South Korea via Malaysia. D'Silva, a resident of Malad, has a history of trafficking children and women to the United Kingdom and France using forged passports. He was apprehended on October 10 after immigration officers detected suspicious activity while scanning his passport at the Mumbai airport.
The police allege that D'Silva was promised Rs 50,000 in advance and a total of Rs 7 lakh once the woman reached Jeju Island. During questioning, D'Silva admitted that financial difficulties compelled him to engage in this alleged criminal activity. He confessed to possessing fake passports for five individuals, posing as their relatives to facilitate their alleged travel abroad.
The police are currently investigating a wider trafficking network and are searching for individuals who may have contacted D'Silva. They are also examining the possibility of government or immigration officials' involvement in this matter.
