The Delhi Police have apprehended four illegal Bangladeshi immigrants, including three who worked as property dealers, from Delhi’s Bawana and Mahipalpur. The accused, identified as Mustaq (72) and his sons Shahid Khan (28) and Mintu (32), were residing in Bawana’s JJ Colony, they said. A police official said the accused were residing in the city for over two decades using forged documents.
An illegal Bangladeshi, identified as Md Monto, was detained from Mahipalpur area while he was seeking accommodation, he said. They had illegally entered India from Bangladesh via West Bengal and later settled in Delhi. They were currently working as property dealers in Bawana and were in possession of fake birth certificates and other forged documents.
The official said that the police received a tip-off about their presence in Bawana and they were apprehended following a raid.
“During interrogation, the accused initially denied any link with Bangladesh and tried to mislead the police by producing forged documents. However, sustained interrogation and verification of the documents revealed the truth,” a senior officer said.
