Pakistanis nabbed in Jordan with $20m in fake bills
Three Pakistanis have been caught red-handed in Jordan trying to pass on 20 million dollars worth of counterfeit US banknotes, the al-Rai newspaper said on Saturday. One of the Pakistanis, who were identified only by their initials, had contacted a Jordanian who promised to handle the 20 million dollars, the pro-government paper said. The trio was arrested with the fake cash in a sting set up by the kingdomâs anti-corruption squad following a tip-off from their Jordanian contact. The Pakistanis, aged 26, 27 and 36, are to appear before the state security court. Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2004-02-08 |
