ID card of the Chinese national Hon Jo
Since all his documents are in the Mandarin language, BSF is taking extra time to verify his credentials. A Chinese interpreter, who has been summoned for help, will reach around 4pm today. He is being questioned by the police and intelligence bureau oficials at the ManikChak police station for now.
