Are There Limits to What an Immigration Officer Can Ask You? This One Found Out the Hard Way.

Apparently he just wanted a date.

The immigration officer started by asking probing and seemingly unnecessary questions “like how many children I have, do I drink, do I smoke or eat chicken”, the woman told Indian news channel Times Now.

“He also asked me whether I sleep with other men when my husband is at work,” the woman alleged.

The passenger was departing Delhi enroute to Hong Kong. Apparently her alarm bells only went up when she was asked “if she would like to have her third child with” the immigration officer.

Eventually allowed to clear departure formalities, the officer followed her through the airport. He has since been arrested.
