CRPF Dismisses Constable for Unauthorized Marriage to Pakistani National

Constable Munir Ahmed was removed from service for violating conduct rules by marrying a Pakistani woman without approval and failing to report her visa overstay.

Overview

  • The CRPF dismissed Constable Munir Ahmed for concealing his marriage to a Pakistani woman and aiding her visa overstay, citing national security concerns.
  • Ahmed married Minal Khan via a WhatsApp video call in May 2024 without waiting for official permission, breaching Rule 21(3) of the Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1964.
  • The disciplinary inquiry found Ahmed failed to inform the CRPF about his wife’s expired visa and her long-term visa application, violating procedural requirements.
  • Following the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, 2025, India revoked Pakistani visas and ordered deportations, leading to Khan’s temporary reprieve via a High Court stay on April 29.
  • Ahmed disputes the dismissal, claiming he received prior approval for the marriage and plans to challenge the decision in court.
