Authorities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have arrested 10 Pakistani nationals, including five women, on charges of begging, according to FIA officials.
The detainees, who were held during separate operations across the UAE, have been transferred to local jails and are expected to be deported to Pakistan in the coming days. Officials confirmed that emergency passports have already been prepared for their return.
All 10 individuals were reportedly caught while begging in various locations and are currently in custody. "They will be arrested upon arrival in Pakistan, and legal action will be initiated," FIA officials said.
