A busy month for border officers at Malaga-Costa del Sol airport

FOUR people have been arrested in less than two weeks for trying to travel from Malaga-Costa del Sol airport with false ID.

On October 1, the National Police reported, a man was stopped while attempting to board a flight to Luton with a Polish passport lacking some security details.

Two days later irregularities were also detected in the Polish passport a 37-year-old woman presented when flying to London.

On the same day, border officers noticed some anomalies on a Malaysian passport carried by another passenger flying to Belfast and finally on October 12 officers arrested a man trying to fly to Paris with a false French ID card.

After contacting the French authorities, the last detainee was found to be wanted in France but there were no international arrest warrants pending.
