Man arrested before suspected sham wedding in Glasgow

 

A man faces removal from the UK after he was arrested just before he was due to get married in a suspected sham wedding in Glasgow.

Acting on information that the relationship may not be genuine, officers from the Home Office Immigration Enforcement team attended Montrose Street registration office at around 10.30 on Tuesday 9 April 2013.

They arrested a 27-year-old Pakistani man who was in the country illegally having over-stayed his visa. He was detained and now faces removal from the UK.

His would-be bride, a 32-year-old Lithuanian woman, was questioned by officers and later released.
