The Delhi High Court has held that immigration officers can detain individuals for further questioning and security checks even if they hold a valid visa, according to Hindustan Times.

• Government counsel stated the German Embassy had issued an alert valid until October 31, 2027, after his previous visa was annulled.

The court noted that the petitioner was allowed to travel each time after examination and the authorities were not exercising powers arbitrarily.
