webfact Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Iranian woman intercepted at Bangkok airport using British passport Picture: INN Immigration at Suvarnabhumi Airport yesterday arrested a 26 year old Iranian woman who was travelling on a British passport. Darya Sheida, from Tehran, had arrived in Thailand at Phuket on January 24th. She was using a passport in the name of a British national, Miss Mary Catherine Newland. She got on flight PG 270 in Phuket to Bangkok and was then arrested before she was due to fly to London. She told immigration that she bought the passport in Iran for $1,300 (40,300 baht). It came from an eastern European country, reported INN. The news media reported that this was the third such arrest for travelling on false documents this year. Police said this was a clear case of an individual using a third country to mask their true intentions.

Will27 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 The passport could've been flagged as being stolen before she was going to board and Thai Immigration were possibly informed by British Immigration. Assuming the passport is genuine. Either way, she would've probably applied for refugee status once arriving in the UK. Good to see she was nabbed before she arrived there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you see those photos or did you just see the same pics as everyone else which showed almost none of her face? Duh, indeed.

baansgr Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Just one more reason to get the #%$$# out of the EU, its common Knowledge UK passports are available for even less than this is the Eastern Block countries. Its not xenophobic or racist...its just common sense in todays world of mad terrorists that security is of the utmost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your informtion I´ve left home earlier than you for sure. Have travelled to most of the european countries and a big part of asian world including Iran, Irak, Pakistan and Afganistan. So, there we can see that you were deadly wrong directly. About you meeting many iranian women speaking enlish or french fluently has nothing to do with that you can´t find one with the name, Mary Catherine Newland, because that is 100% english name. Guess they ain´t that far in development yet, or what do you have to say this time? Maybe time to clean the bicycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although that may be an English name , an Iranian woman could pass for a British Woman . With numerous British people now of mixed race , a "foreign" looking Woman with a British name would not look out of place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
