Police have arrested three Indonesian women for engaging in suspicious activities.

The Department of Immigration apprehended them, who came to Nepal on tourist and student visas, after they were found to be engaging in suspicious activities.

According to a source at the Immigration Department, one of them came to Nepal on a tourist visa and two on student visa.

Preliminary investigation, however, revealed that they were found to be not enrolled in any educational institution.

Immigration sources said that they came on student visas and found to be operating a girls' hostel in the name of Himalayan Education and Welfare Society, an organization related to the Muslim organization, in Dhobighat, Lalitpur.

It has been learnt that they were found to be teaching Turkish and Quran in the hostel as well as promoting the Muslim religion.

Police said that they are looking into the case.
