Illegal infiltration: ED arrests 2 Bangladeshi nationals, 1 Indian

Rony Mondal and Sameer Chowdhary are nationals of the neighbouring country while Pintu Haldar is an Indian. The three, suspected to be touts, were arrested on Tuesday night from West Bengal in the Bangladeshi Infiltration case for facilitating illegal human trafficking in India, the sources said.

The three have been taken into custody under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), they said.

The federal probe agency had launched searches at 17 locations in poll-bound Jharkhand apart from West Bengal in this money laundering case on Tuesday.

“Incriminating” items like fake Aadhaar cards, forged passports, illegal arms, immovable property documents, cash, jewellery, printing paper and machines and blank proforma used for forging Aadhaar ID were recovered during the raids, the federal agency had said in a statement on Tuesday.
