Delhi Police Uncovers Illegal Bangladeshi Immigration Racket, Arrests 12

The operation dismantled a syndicate forging Indian IDs for illegal migrants, with over 1,000 suspects identified in an ongoing crackdown.

Delhi Police arrested 12 individuals, including five illegal Bangladeshi migrants and seven Indian nationals, for their roles in an immigration racket creating forged Indian identification documents.
The investigation began after a murder in Delhi's Sangam Vihar, leading to the discovery of fake Aadhaar cards, voter IDs, and other counterfeit documents used by migrants to settle in India.
The syndicate used forest routes and express trains to facilitate illegal entry into India, later providing migrants with forged documents through a fake website called 'Jantaprints.site.'
Authorities have identified over 1,000 suspected illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in Delhi as part of a two-month drive ordered by the Lieutenant Governor to address undocumented migration.
The arrested individuals face charges of forgery, identity fraud, and facilitating illegal immigration, with further investigations expected to uncover additional links and arrests.
