Six Bangladeshi nationals have been shifted to a detention centre after being detained by Delhi Police for violating the conditions of their double-entry visas by staying beyond the permissible duration, officials said on Sunday.

The six were detained during the inspection of hotels and guest houses as part of a verification drive in central Delhi. They were found staying at a hotel on Arakashan Road in Nabi Karim.

Verification of their visas and immigration records revealed that although their visas were valid, each visit permitted a maximum stay of 15 days, which they had exceeded, police said.

The six were produced before the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), which issued restriction orders and shifted them to a detention centre for deportation proceedings.

Police said no previous criminal involvement of the six had come to light.
