Immigration firm booked for fraud


Chandigarh, October 27
Tightening its noose around the immigration firms, which are duping people on the pretext of sending them abroad, the Chandigarh Police registered another case against a Sector 34-based immigration firm, AKME Carrier World, on the complaint of Rajnish Anand hailing from Punjab for duping him of Rs 9 lakh.
According to the police, Rajnish, a resident of Kathgarh village near Balachaur in Nawanshahr district, alleged that even after paying Rs 9 lakh to the immigration firm, neither he was sent abroad nor the firm returned his money.
The police said the complainant was promised that he would be sent abroad, however, despite repeated requests neither he was sent abroad nor his money was returned.
Policemen said at present they had come across a single complaint against the immigration firm, however, during investigation they would be tracing other customers to establish whether there are more victims of the immigration fraud.
On the basis of the complaint, an investigation has been initiated and a case under Sections 420 (forgery) and 120 (criminal conspiracy) of the IPC has been registered.
