Cracking yet another human trafficking racket, Delhi Police have arrested three persons in the national capital for allegedly sending over 100 people to the United States by using forged documents.
The arrests were made following a tip off on February 20 from in front of American embassy in Chanakyapuri and Prashant Vihar locality in the national capital, Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Satyendra Garg said.
Ajay Shukla, who runs his office from Safdarjung Hospital staff quarters, and his associates Pawan Mishra and Gursahat Singh were caught by a special team of Delhi Police's Crime Branch, he said.
Shukla allegedly used to charge Rs two to five lakh from prospective people who wished to travel to the US and used forged PAN cards, Income Tax returns and bank statements to procure visas. His modus operandi was to apply for 10 to 12 visas in the US embassy every month and Shukla managed to procure three to four visas every month, Garg said.
During interrogation, he said, the trio told police that they had sent more than 100 people to the US by using forged documents.
This is one of the three biggest human trafficking racket cracked in the national capital in the last one year. In April last year, the arrest of the BJP MP Babubhai Katara blew the lid off a major human trafficking racket and threw up the names of at least four lawmakers -- Ramswarup Koli (BJP) and Mitrasen Yadav, Mohammad Tahir Khan and Ashok Rawat (all BSP).
