The government has announced a significant step to increase border security by mandating the installation of biometric machines at all airports across the country. This new measure makes biometric verification compulsory for all international passengers. The Interior Ministry emphasized that the introduction of biometric technology will be a game changer in preventing wanted suspects from travelling in and out of the country. The biometric machines will be installed at international immigration counters, where travellers will undergo verification before boarding their flights. According to ministry officials, the biometric verification will ensure effective screening of passengers. They also said that this initiative was part of a broader effort to align the country’s security systems with international standards. The Interior Ministry has directed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to implement these changes without delay.
