IMMIGRATION police have arrested a Pakistani man for allegedly falsifying visa stamps and stickers on passports and supplying them to a cross-border forgery passport network run by an Iranian, known as “the Doctor,” who is now in police custody.
Police identified the suspect as Mahammad Rumzan, 57. He was also known as 'Johnny Painter' and worked in disguise as a portrait painter on Sukhumwit in Bangkok.
Rumzan appeared yesterday at a press conference along with 92 traveller's cheques worth Bt270,000, plus 40 fake passports for 12 European countries, 20 fake visa stamps, 91 fake visa stickers and some forgery tools.
Immigration Police chief Pol Lt General Natthorn Phrosunthorn said Rumzan was nabbed in Don Muang district last Friday while allegedly delivering a forged passport to a customer. A search of his bag by police found: four French and two Israeli passports, four of which were reported stolen. A search at his apartment also revealed more evidence.
