Mangalore, March 15: Nearly two years after he was arrested on charges of illegal entry into India, the Bangladesh national Mohammad Azazm Khan, was deported to his country by Mangalore police on Monday, official sources said.
Khan had earlier been caught by the Saudi Arabian authorities in Jeddah, for illegal stay, and later he was wrongly deported to India, after he lied to them that he was an Indian.
After wandering across the country for a few months, Khan, who was originally a resident of Bhorsharnaz village in Chittagong district of the Bangladesh, was finally caught by the District Crime Investigation Bureau police in Mangalore in April 2009, and sentenced to two years of imprisonment before a local court ordered his deportation.
It is said that Khan had left Bangladesh under the pretext of performing Hajj and also received permission for that. However, after reaching the oil rich country, he moved towards Jeddah instead of Makkah and wilfully became an illegal immigrant. He also destroyed all the documents and caught by authorities, who subsequently deported him to New Delhi, thinking that he was an Indian and his name was Taslim Ahmed Khan, as lied by him.
After being convicted for vagrancy and violation of passport act, Khan completed two-year term in Belgaum jail. Pandeshwar police on Sunday had left for Belgaum to facilitate his deportation.
