Abroad sent two people this way

Accused Raju Prajapati and Shilpa Patel were approached by accused Haresh Patel and Hardik Patel as they were going to US. As both Raju and Shilpa were single, the two accused made their duplicate passports for the visa procedure to go to America as a family group.

Based on this, both of them were taken to Delhi for Nigerian visa and applied for visa. On the basis of this, they were in the process of obtaining a visa from Nigeria to Mexico and arriving at a US refugee camp from the US-Mexico border to be granted temporary American citizenship.

If there is a family, a charge of Rs

Agents are responsible for everything from getting a duplicate passport from India to bringing a person or family out of a refugee camp in the USA or abroad. Payment is made only after the work has been completed. The entire investigation into the passport scam is being conducted by PSI AB Jebaliya under the supervision of PI DB Barad.

Discount is given if 3 members want to go If three members of a family, including a couple and a child, wanted to go to America, they would take a discount of Rs 1.20 crore to Rs 1.30 crore.

Created 2 child’s fake documents Raju Prajapati and Shilpa Patel were both single. Since they were both going to America, Haresh and Hardik made passports in the names of Raju’s Rajendra Patel and Shilpa’s Kamini Rajendra Patel and showed them as husband and wife. He also prepared documents of having 2 children.
