Changi customs finds forged immigration stamp

posted by Editor at

A 29-year-old Sri Lankan woman was caught with pieces of forged immigration rubber stamp imprints in her luggage at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 1 yesterday (Tuesday 1 July).

The Immigration and Checkpoints Authority claims such items could be used by syndicates offering services to immigration offenders to prolong or legalise their stay.

The penalties for overstaying or illegal entry are a jail term of up to six months plus a minimum of three strokes of the cane.
