If you thought breaking up with someone via text message was harsh, wait until you hear about this.
There’s a story coming out of the United Kingdom about an immigration officer who put his wife on the terrorist list to get rid of her.
The guy was so sick and tired of his wife that when she flew back to Pakistan to visit her family, he covertly added her name to the Border Control’s list of suspected terrorists.
When she tried to return home to the UK, she was shocked to find that she wasn’t allowed to board the plane, and security refused to tell her why.
So the wife remained stuck in Pakistan… for THREE YEARS.
That’s right, it wasn’t until three years later that the truth finally came out during an interview for a promotion in which the husband was questioned about his wife being a terrorist.
That’s when he confessed to putting her on the No-Fly list to get rid of her. He was subsequently fired for gross misconduct and the wife was allowed to return to the UK to give him a good beating.

lol the title made me laugh "British Pakistani man puts wife on terrorist list to get rid of her".
and this "and the wife was allowed to return to the UK to give him a good beating."
waise is ka yeh matlab nahi hua ke immigration ka koi bhi banda apka Border Control’s list pe naam daal de awein. aur yeh loag baghair pooch gach kiye aapko terrorist maan lein.
Re: British Pakistani man puts wife on terrorist list to get rid of her
So it is that easy to put anyone's name in border control/ terrorist list... it seems like there are no procedures to follow, if any border control, immigration officer is not happy with you, you can end up in Guantanamo Bay...
Lucky that it was Brits handling the case and not Americans, otherwise another Afia Siddique was in making
Moreover, it looks like there is only one criteria for the list, Pakistani+Muslim

Yes, he worked as an immigration official with UK’s Border Agency and had full access to the list. This is pretty concerning coz it goes to show that immigration officials can manually add anyone on the list and it’s not just based on computer generated rules and data mining principles as they would have you believe.
This case would have gone undetected if it weren’t for his own investigation following his promotion. Full story here:
