Security personnel have apprehended two persons from Naharlagun railway station after they allegedly entered the state without the mandatory inner permit and some maps were seized from them.

Two men travelling by the Naharlagun-Guwahati Inter-City Express were apprehended yesterday for entering the state without obtaining the mandatory inner line permits and train tickets.

The two were handed over to the Naharlagun police station.

Of the two, one Amarendra Jena, was travelling with a fake ID card and had maps with him "that marked out J&K and the Northeast regions", officials said.

District tourism officer TK Kopak, who is also in-charge of the tourist ILP facilitation centre at the rail station, said that while Jena "claims to be an advocate in the Orissa High Court, he was unable to write any application when asked to do so".
