INDIA, August 13, 2010: The Pune police will deport five South Koreans, including three women, who had been propagating Christianity while on student and tourist visas.
The police said the five had gone from door to door distributing pamphlets in Pimpri-Chinchwad on Wednesday, leading to a brawl with a group of local Hindu activists. The Koreans have not appointed a lawyer, accepted their deportation and will fly home Friday, the police said.
“Those who come to the country on student visa should limit themselves to academics. But the five Koreans were found to have come here to propagate Christianity, which created a law and order problem. As per law, this act is a gross violation of visa rules. So we have asked the foreigners to leave India,” Deputy Commissioner of Police Makrand Ranade said.
