Ugandan Women Arrested in Tirupur for Illegal Stay
Two women from Uganda were caught staying in India without the right paperwork.
They came to India a couple of years ago with visas meant for tourists, but stayed longer than they were allowed.
They were living in a town called Avinashi, in a rental house.
They used to buy clothes in Tirupur and send them back to their country to sell.
Because they didn't have the correct documents to stay in India, the police arrested them.
Now, they'll have to go back to their home country after the legal process is complete.
Two Ugandan women were arrested in Tirupur district for illegal stay.
The women, Evaline Dinah and Nagawa Aisha, were found without valid documents.
They had initially entered India on tourist visas approximately two years prior.
The women were reportedly involved in exporting readymade garments.
They will be deported after legal proceedings.
