Bangladeshi National Arrested in Kerala for Illegal Stay and EmploymentPreviousNext

Kerala police arrested Mohammad Rathon Islam, a 33-year-old Bangladeshi national, from a plywood factory in Kuruppampady, Ernakulam district, for allegedly staying and working without valid documents. He reportedly entered India illegally and had been employed at the factory for about one month. Authorities recovered identity documents confirming his Bangladeshi citizenship. The arrest follows previous detentions of Bangladeshi nationals working without valid permits in nearby areas, with investigations ongoing under the Immigration and Foreigners Act.
