A western Sydney man is accused of stranding his wife in Pakistan with no way of getting back to Australia. The 29-year-old has been charged with one count of exit trafficking by using deception and was due to appear in Burwood Local Court on Wednesday. An investigation was launched in November when the woman reported she had been ditched in the South Asian country with no documentation to fly home.
Once they arrived at the latter destination, the husband allegedly told the woman he was going back to Afghanistan to visit friends. But two months later she found out he had returned to Australia alone. The AFP raided the man’s Auburn home before charging him with one count of exit trafficking of a person from Australia by using deception. The maximum penalty for someone convicted of this offence is 12 years in prison.
