A commercial pilot has filed a police complaint on Friday that somebody has used his name to get his visa for Dubai. The commercial pilot applied for visa via his sponsor for the commercial pilot training. The officials denied him visa saying that someone had already taken visa by using his details and entered Abu Dhabi. The pilot maintained that he had never been to Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
“I wanted to go to Dubai (UAE) for pilot training with CAE Flight Training, Emirates Aviation College on February 20. I sent my documents to CAE to get my visa issued on February 3. Later when CAE applied for UAE visa on my behalf on February 10, we were informed that someone had travelled to Abu Dhabi on my passport number with Askar International agent visa. I requested CAE to visit Abu Dhabi immigration office with scanned copy of all the pages of my passport to solve this issue but CAE was told that I have to be there with my original passport,” said Anil Kumar, the commercial pilot.
He said that he cannot visit the UAE personally as he does not have UAE visa.
“To solve this issue, I visited the UAE embassy in New Delhi but I was told to visit Abu Dhabi Immigration and also contact Indian embassy in UAE. I emailed the Indian embassy in the UAE and the ministry of external affairs many times, but didn’t receive any reply from them,” said Mr Kumar.
“I haven’t found any solution to this matter and I am afraid that the same person can misuse the said visa. The said person can be involved in any unlawful activity. I don’t want to take any risk so I filed a complaint with Delhi police on Friday itself at Ashok Vihar police station. However, the police asked me to take this matter to the passport office,” said Mr Kumar.
