J&K Crime Branch files charge sheet in fake jobs, forged visas case

Srinagar, July 3 (SocialNews.XYZ) J&K Crime Branch said on Friday that it has filed a charge sheet against an educational consultancy operator in a fake jobs and forged visas fraud case involving lakhs of rupees.

The Economic Offences Wing (EOW), Kashmir, Crime Branch, J&K, has filed a charge sheet in FIR No. 67/2021 under Sections 420, 468 and 471 RPC against Fayaz Ahmad Zarger, son of Mohd. Shafi Zarger, resident of Qutub Din Pora, Aali Kadal, Jamia Masjid, Srinagar, before the court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Srinagar, for offences of cheating and forgery, a Crime Branch statement said.

 

The case was registered on the basis of a written complaint alleging that the accused, who was operating M/s HR Choice International Education Consultancy, Karanagar, Srinagar, lured the complainant with false promises of securing a job in Bahrain.

During the investigation, it was revealed that the accused had similarly duped the complainant and several other persons, collected lakhs of rupees from them, and provided forged job offer letters, visas, air tickets and other fabricated documents.

To lend credibility to the scheme, the victims were made to undergo online interviews, medical examinations, and execute agreements. However, no employment was arranged, and the money was neither refunded nor returned.

The allegations were substantiated during the investigation, and upon completion of all legal formalities, the charge sheet was presented before the competent court for judicial determination.

The Crime Branch advised the general public to remain vigilant against economic fraudsters and report any such incidents to the SSP, EOW Kashmir, Crime Branch J&K. Victims of economic fraud may also submit their complaints via email at sspeow-kmr@jkpolice.gov.in

J&K Crime Branch, a wing of the J&K Police, is deployed to investigate special crimes in which dedicated teams of investigators with technical backup are needed as territorial police dealing with law and order and security-related issues do not have teams to spare for full-time investigation of crimes of economic, criminal or other nature.
