The Swiss Air brought the four accused to the notice of immigration officers at the airport. During investigation, they revealed that all of them are Tibetans and they had managed to get the passports with the help of a Chinese agent in Nepal on payment of '1-2 lakh each.
On further interrogation, one of the accused Lee Wonsic revealed her real name was Ms Lobsang Dolma. Other three accused also confessed to being Tibetans.
