Family of nine from Myanmar booked for illegally staying in Unnao, procuring Aadhaar
Kanpur: The Unnao police on Friday lodged an FIR against Myanmar national Mohd Sahil and his eight family members for staying illegally in India and violating the provisions of the Immigration and Foreigners Act.
As per the complaint, lodged by Balu Ghat outpost in-charge Gajendra Singh, Sahil, his siblings Anwar, Habibullah, and Hashmat, father Mohd Yahya, mother Rahima Begum, sister Shenuara Begum, brother-in-law Junaid, wife Ajida, and daughter-in-law Noor Qaida have been residing in Unnao's Shuklaganj area for eight years since leaving Myanmar, without valid documentation.
They have also been booked for allegedly procuring Aadhaar card, with help from a local corporator, who later denied issuing any certificate endorsing their nationality.
The investigating team have now requested details from the Aadhaar-issuing authority regarding certification.
"We have contacted the Lucknow Centre. If we get to know about any link of others in it, they will be included in the investigation," said Kotwali inspector-in-charge Pramod Kumar Mishra.
In view of the allegation, the local police have been asked to keep an eye on the family.
The Unnao police, which visited the family on Thursday, questioned the family and documented their statements.

"While no valid documents were found during the search in their house, analysis of phone records showed Mohd Sahil and his brothers primarily contacting individuals from Shuklaganj and Unnao," said DCP East Satyajit Gupta.
While the Rohingya family has expressed intentions to relocate to Bangladesh, citing relatives there and safety concerns for Muslims in Myanmar, police said they may be arrested soon.
