Nigerian Woman Deported for Drug Trafficking
A Nigerian woman named Sylvenda Khasoha was caught in Hyderabad, India, for doing bad things like selling drugs and helping people move illegally.
She was using a fake passport and stayed in India longer than she was allowed.
The police found out and sent her back to Nigeria.
It cost the government a lot of money to send her back.
The police are also catching other people who are doing similar bad things.
They are working hard to keep India safe from these crimes.
Sylvenda Khasoha, a Nigerian woman, was deported from Hyderabad for drug trafficking and human trafficking.
She was apprehended by the EAGLE Force in December 2025 and found to be living lavishly while engaging in unlawful activities.
All three women, including Khasoha, were in possession of fake passports and visas, violating immigration laws.
The deportation process cost the government Rs. 46,500 and involved a Movement Restriction Order and detention at the Central Crime Station.
In 2025, 41 foreign nationals involved in drug-related crimes have been deported by the EAGLE Force.
