Hyderabad: A woman from Kenya was deported on Wednesday after authorities found her alleged involvement in drug trafficking and flesh trade activities in Telangana.
Based on specific intelligence, the Telangana EAGLE Force had nabbed three foreign women in December 2025, at the State border on suspicion of illegal activities. During questioning, the women admitted to entering India illegally, travelling by air from Delhi and later shifting to Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, where they rented an apartment and allegedly engaged in drug peddling and flesh trade.
Investigations revealed that the trio was using forged passports and visas. Biometric verification at the FRRO in Hyderabad confirmed that one of them, identified as Sylvenda Khasoha of Kenya, was overstaying in India with an expired visa.
After obtaining a Movement Restriction Order, all three were lodged at the CCS Detention Centre in Hyderabad. Following the issuance of an exit permit, Khasoha was deported to Kenya after being held in detention for over a month.
