Ghaziabad: A Pakistani man was arrested here on Tuesday for violating visa rules by buying land, getting into the voters` list and obtaining a voter ID, police said.

The police stumbled on the identity of Mohammad Younus, from Karachi in Pakistan, who had been living in Dasna on a long-term visa since 1956.

He also bought property in his name, a police officer said.

"Although he has not been interrogated properly, we are sure he may have opened a bank account also," said the officer.

Younus has been booked under the Foreigners Act.
