CBI Raid Against Foreign Agents: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has busted an international network related to human trafficking. This gang used to take Indians to the Russia-Ukraine war zone under the guise of providing them jobs abroad.
Central agency officials gave this information on Thursday (March 7). The agency has raided more than 10 places in seven cities. Officials said the agency has filed FIRs against several visa consultancy firms and agents. During the search, many people have been detained and Rs 50 lakh has been seized.
A raid has taken place here
According to a report in Times of India, CBI has conducted raids in Delhi, Thiruvananthapuram, Mumbai, Ambala, Chandigarh, Madurai and Chennai. The action comes a day after Mohammed Afsan, a 30-year-old man from Hyderabad, was killed in the ongoing war with Ukraine. Afsan was taken abroad to work as a helper, after which he was thrown into the war. About a week ago, a person named Hamil Mangukiya from Surat, Gujarat was also killed in the war.
Was sent abroad as a helper
According to the information, like Afsan, many youths from Telangana and other places in India were sent abroad by agents with the promise of jobs in Russia at high salaries. The agent also allegedly collected Rs 3.5 lakh per person from them. Later he was sent to fight in the Ukraine war.
Foreign Ministry has taken this initiative
Let us inform that the Ministry of External Affairs has also taken up the matter with the Russian authorities to ensure the early release of these persons. The Ministry of External Affairs had also said that about 20 Indians are still stranded in Russia and the government is making efforts to bring them back.
