Two Maharashtra residents held in Mangaluru visa fraud case
Mangaluru police have arrested two residents of Maharashtra for allegedly cheating over 200 job aspirants in the city, to the tune of ₹1.82 crore, by falsely promising them job visas. The police, in a statement, said that the Central Crime Branch sleuths arrested the prime accused, Dishad Abdul Sattar Khan, 45, of Navi Mumbai and Sahukari Kishore Kumar alias Anil Patel, 34, of Dombivli, Thane. The police have already arrested Masiullah Khan, a native of Mumbai, in connection with the cheating case. These arrests were made based on the complaint filed with the Barke police by Avaneesh Shukla, Protector of Emigrants (PoE), Ministry of External Affairs, Bengaluru, on December 31, 2024. Mr. Shukla accused Hireglow Elegant Overseas Private Limited in Bendoorwell, Mangaluru, of conducting interviews for overseas jobs without registering with the Ministry of External Affairs as required. The agency unauthorisedly collected the passports of job aspirants, and operated in violation of provisions of the Emigration Act, Mr. Shukla alleged. The police registered the case under Sections 10 and 24 of the Emigration Act. For failure on the part of the Barke police in taking necessary legal action on the complaint, earlier, former Police Commissioner Anupam Agrawal had placed police inspector G.C. Somashekar and police sub-inspector M.N. Umesh Kumar under suspension.
