The Uttar Pradesh police on Monday arrested a Chinese national who had allegedly been living illegally for two years, and his Indian girlfriend for sheltering him in Greater Noida, according to officials.
According to a 'Times of India' report, the Chinese national Xue fei aka Kelay, 36, and his girlfriend Petekhrinuo, 22, from Nagaland, were arrested from a hotel in Gurugram, Haryana, by UP's Gautam Buddh Nagar Police, the officials said.
They were held on the basis of information given by two Chinese nationals, who were arrested on Nepal-India border in Bihar on Saturday by the Sashtra Seema Bal (SSB) as they were trying to cross over into the Himalayan nation after staying in India illegally, police said.
Kelay and Petekhrinuo were staying in a housing society in Greater Noida but had fled to Gurugram after they got to know that the police have started looking for them, he said. The Beta 2 Police Station in Greater Noida traced them in Gurugram and the two were taken into police custody.
"During probe it emerged that the Chinese national's Indian visa had expired in June 2020. He had forged the documents to make the figures look like 2022," Pandey said.
"He has violated the laws related to the visa and forged documents. His Indian girlfriend, who sheltered him during the process, had also helped him. FIRs have been lodged under relevant provisions of the law against both," the additional DCP said.
Kelay and Petekhrinuo were engaged in a business related to mobile phone spare parts in Gautam Buddh Nagar and nearby Ghaziabad, a senior official said.
According to the report, it was Indian woman who had arranged SIM cards for the two Chinese nationals who were staying at her residence, the official said, citing preliminary findings. (TOI)
