800 Pakistani pilgrims duped in travel scam, stranded in Saudi Arabia
Lahore, July 4 (ANI): A travel agency scam has stranded as many as 800 Pakistani pilgrims in Saudi Arabia after their travel agents refunded their tickets in Pakistan.
The Daily Times quoted one pilgrim, as saying that his visa for staying in Saudi Arabia would expire in a couple of days.
He said his sub-agent in Saudi Arabia had suggested his family to surrender to the Saudi authorities, as Pakistani travel agents could not be contacted.
