In a shocking turn of events, Mathura Police has arrested a first-year undergraduate student of BBA with 160
The name of the accused is Vikas Kumar, and he belongs to Gopalganj in Bihar. According to Mathura SSP Rakesh Singh, he was arrested from his PG room once his landlord alerted cops after being suspicious of his activities.
"Kumar was allotted a college hostel room, but the college administration threw him out of the hostel after finding his activities suspicious. He shifted from there and took up a PG accommodation but there too the owners found his behaviour very strange as he used to change the lock of his room every alternate day. He never contacted or talked to anyone and preferred stay inside his room," the SSP told TOI.
After getting the complaint from the landlord, a police team raided his room where they found 160-odd passports both from India and Arab countries. They also recovered some job certificates and interim visa applications, along with a laptop, several mobile phones and SIM cards.
Most of these passports belonged to people who want jobs in Arab countries, many of them in Iraq and Dubai.
"Kumar earlier worked with a travel agency in New Delhi. We suspect that he runs a fake job racket. He used to monitor job vacancies in Arab countries, get fake passports made of Indian people, get them fake job experience certificates along with visa and other documents. He earned money from both companies and applicants in this manner," Singh added.
The police team and IB want to know the names of the people involved in this racket, as it’s not possible to run such a huge business all alone. He would be further interrogated in custody so that the matter can be solved.
