Operation Uncovers Illegal Overstay: Three Sri Lankan Nationals Apprehended in Bengaluru

Bengaluru's Central Crime Branch (CCB) has successfully cracked down on illegal immigration, apprehending three Sri Lankan nationals who were found to be unlawfully residing and working in the city after their visas had expired. The arrests, a result of meticulous intelligence gathering, highlight the stringent measures being taken to enforce immigration laws and ensure national security.

The individuals, identified as K.M.

Sangeeth, N. Santhos, and J. Kumaran, all reportedly in their 30s, were taken into custody during targeted operations conducted within the Jeevan Bima Nagar and Banaswadi police station limits. Authorities revealed that the trio had initially entered India on valid tourist visas, which had since lapsed, rendering their continued presence in the country illegal.

Further investigation by the CCB brought to light serious allegations that the arrested nationals were not only overstaying but were also actively employed in private companies within Bengaluru.

Disturbingly, it is suspected that they may have been using forged documents to secure these positions and evade detection by law enforcement agencies. This aspect of the case adds a layer of complexity, pointing towards potential networks or facilitators involved in aiding illegal residents.

Acting on specific and credible information, the CCB launched the operation that led to their swift apprehension.

A formal case has been registered at the Jeevan Bima Nagar police station under relevant sections of the law. The ongoing probe aims to unearth the full extent of their activities during their illegal stay, including any possible links to other illicit operations or individuals. This development serves as a stark reminder of the continuous vigilance required to manage immigration effectively and prevent the misuse of visa regulations.
