Healthyway agents still active

Claim office to reopen in 10 days

Chandigarh, August 20
Though he has allegedly raked in crores by duping clients across the region on fake promises of easy migration overseas, the owner of Healthyway Immigration seems to have learnt no lesson from the police action taken against him.
Even as the police sealed the office last Saturday, four agents of the company sitting outside the locked office in Sector 42 are still telling their clients that they will resume the work after 10 days. Some of the clients have also been told that the police will not take any action against them and no more cases will be registered now as a settlement has been effected. Scores of clients of the company daily throng the Sector 42 office of the consultancy as they have been left in the lurch and are looking for their passports, which they had deposited with the company.
Rajiv, a resident of Jalandhar, who came to the consultancy, said the agents told him that he should come back after 10 days. “When I asked them about the police case against them, they told me that Ravi Kakkar, the accused’s father, will run the firm and I can then complete my application for visa,” he said. “To my surprise, the agents said they are not affected by police action at all and will run the firm smoothly,” he added.

POLICE CONDUCTS RAIDS

The UT Police on Saturday conduced raids at various places to arrest the co-accused in the case involving fraud by Healthyway Immigration. The police raided the Dhanas residence of Kuldeep, who was an employee at the firm and had, according to the police, connived with the prime accused, Amit Kakkar, in duping scores of youths on false promises of easy migration abroad. However, Kuldeep is absconding and could not be arrested. The police has now zeroed in on Kuldeep after investigations brought to light that he was allegedly the brain behind the fraud. While Amit Kakkar was the beneficiary of all profits as he owned the company, it was Kuldeep who, the police claim, forged documents and succeeded in duping scores of youths.
