Overview
- Immigration officials at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport stopped the group during clearance late Wednesday after officers found suspicious visas while the women sought to board an Oman Air flight.
- The women said a travel agent had arranged their papers and promised jobs abroad and they were unaware the visas were forged.
- RGIA Outpost/Shamshabad police registered a case, issued notices to the women and handed them back to authorities in East Godavari for follow‑up.
- Investigators are trying to identify the unnamed travel agent and any facilitators and will review carrier and travel records to establish routes and intent.
- Reports differ on the intended destination—most say Muscat while one official cited 'Kuwait via Oman'—a discrepancy that may require coordination with airlines and foreign immigration records.
