New Delhi: Three Sri Lankan nationals, suspected to have links with LTTE, and a Chennai man were arrested in the national capital allegedly with forge travel documents, police said today.

The Lankans - identified as Francis Jansan(29), TS Ranjit (28) and John Mary Agastan (22) - were arrested from a hotel in Paharganj of central Delhi, a senior police official said.

The fourth person arrested is Ayakannu, who was accompanying the trio, who hailed from trouble-torn Jaffna, where LTTE and Sri Lankan army are battling for control.

The arrest by the Special Operation Squad of Delhi police Crime branch came after noticing of the suspicious movement of the trio near the hotel where they were staying.

The searches in their room led to the alleged recovery of forged Indian passports and visa. "As of now we have not established that they have any links with Tamil Tigers. We have booked them under relevant sections of foreigners act. Investigations are on into all angles including the LTTE Link," the official said.
