With the arrest of three agents from Haryana and Delhi after a search of over a year, the police have busted a racket of fake international visas operating under the guise of lawyers and travel agencies in the national capital.
The accused were identified as Udit Mogha (32), resident of Janakpuri, Sagar Dabas (25), resident of Ladpur and Kewal Singh (45), resident of Kaithal district of Haryana.
Officials said the trio were involved in a syndicate that lured victims on the pretext of sending people abroad by offering unapproved passports/visas of foreign countries at attractive prices.
Their arrest came when three Indian nationals Gurmeet Singh, Sahil Kumar and Vikram Singh arrived at IGI Airport in 2022 after being deported from Istanbul on a flight. Investigation was started to find out the matter.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (IGI Airport) Usha Ranganani said, “During checking of their travel documents, it was found that Pax Gurpreet departed from IGI Airport on November 7, 2022, Pax Sahil departed from Jaipur on November 16, 2022.” And Vikram also left from Jaipur on November 14, 2022. All left for Baku (Azerbaijan) and from there they reached Istanbul on November 18, 2022 where they were barred from entry on the basis of fake Guyana visas.
During investigation, Sahil revealed that he wanted to go abroad to earn livelihood and his travel was arranged by agent Kewal Singh and his associate agents Udit Moga and Sagar Dabas in exchange for Rs 20 lakh, of which Rs 2 lakh were given to them. It was agreed that the balance would be paid after reaching Guyana in the form of cash advance.
“With the help of technical surveillance, an absconding agent Udit Mogha was arrested from his hideout in Delhi,” the DCP said. The accused confessed to his crime and revealed that he is a post graduate in MCA and is the owner of Rupali Travels Private Limited, Mahipalpur.
Mogha was into the business of ticketing and money exchange. The DCP said, “During his business, he became friends with Kewal Singh and Sagar Dabas. Thereafter, they started luring the victims on the pretext of sending them abroad by offering them approved passports/visas of foreign countries at attractive prices. Accused Udit Mogha further revealed that he used to take money in the account of Rupali Travels.
On the example of Mogha, his associate agent Dabas was also caught from his village. When interrogated, he also confessed to his involvement and revealed that he is a lawyer by profession and he along with his associates Kewal Singh and Mogha had arranged for a fake Guyana visa for Pax in this case.
“Later, at the instance of both the accused, co-accused Kewal Singh was also arrested,” the DCP said.
“Investigation in the case is ongoing to ascertain the involvement of other agents and to examine the bank accounts of the accused persons and also to ascertain their possible involvement in other similar complaints/cases,” the DCP said.
