26,000 people have been found in violation. The committee of MPs had demanded that expatriates should be banned from switching to work visas following arriving in Bahrain on tourist visas. Shaikh Hisham bin Abdul Rahman Al Khalifa, Under-Secretary for Nationality, Passport and Residence Affairs at the Ministry of Interior, said abuse of the entry rules would be strictly prevented. He said airlines would be asked not to board anyone returning to Bahrain without a return ticket, residence visa or sufficient funds.
