Amritsar man acquitted in immigration fraud case

hindustantimes.com

A local court in Chandigarh acquitted Gurvinder Singh in an eight-year-old immigration fraud case. The prosecution could not prove any connection between Singh and the alleged crime, leading to the ruling by Judicial Magistrate Parmod Kumar. The case began in 2017 when a woman claimed she was defrauded of ₹25 lakhs for a job in Singapore. She later discovered she was misled about the position and returned to India to file a complaint. During the trial, the complainant admitted she had never met Singh, which weakened the prosecution's case. Other accused individuals in the case have been declared offenders or acquitted.
