MSN reports:

U-Visa fraud is at the center of a striking case where six individuals, including four Indian nationals, have been indicted by a federal court for orchestrating armed robberies in Chicago and its suburbs.

The objective was to exploit a U.S. immigration program designed to assist victims of specific crimes. The four Indian nationals, Bhikhabhai Patel, Nilesh Patel, Ravinaben Patel, and Rajni Kumar Patel, allegedly collaborated with Parth Nayi and Kewong Young to become “victims” of these staged robberies, enabling them to apply for U nonimmigrant status, commonly known as U-visas.

Understanding the U-Visa Program

The U-Visa program was established to provide legal status to non-citizen victims of certain crimes who have suffered substantial mental or physical abuse and are willing to assist law enforcement in investigating or prosecuting those crimes. This visa offers a path to legal residency and, eventually, U.S. citizenship. The program’s objective is to protect victims while bolstering law enforcement agencies’ capacity to look into and prosecute incidents of sexual assault, domestic abuse, human trafficking, and other crimes.

The Scheme Unveiled

According to the indictment, the fraudulent scheme was meticulously planned. The four primary individuals, all sharing the last name Patel, orchestrated the plan with Nayi and Young. They paid Nayi thousands of dollars to arrange and participate in the fake robberies. During these staged events, individuals posing as robbers would brandish what appeared to be firearms and aggressively demand money and property from the “victims.”

Following these orchestrated incidents, the supposed victims would then submit forms to local law enforcement agencies, seeking certification that they had been victims of qualifying crimes and had been or would be helpful in the subsequent investigation. This certification is a crucial component of the U-Visa application process, as it validates the applicant’s victim status and their cooperation with law enforcement.

Filing Fraudulent Applications

With the certifications in hand, some of the purported victims proceeded to file fraudulent U-Visa applications with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). These applications falsely claimed that the individuals had been victims of genuine crimes, thereby manipulating the intent of the U-Visa program. The Department of Justice highlighted this aspect in their statement, emphasizing the serious nature of the fraudulent activities.

CBS adds:

The indictment listed more than a dozen staged robberies committed during the scheme, including gas stations in Lombard and Hickory Hills; Subway restaurants in Chicago, Elmwood Park, and Louisiana; a Tropical Smoothie Café in St. Charles; multiple Dunkin Donuts stores in Chicago and South Holland; liquor stores in Chicago, River Grove, and Lake Villa; a 7-Eleven in Chicago, and a truck stop in Tennessee.

The conspiracy charges carry a sentence of up to 5 years in prison, while the false statement charge against Ravinaben Patel carries a sentence of up to 10 years in prison.
