In a significant ruling, a court in Ballia has sentenced Abdul Amin, a Bangladeshi citizen, to three years in prison for identity fraud and illegal land registration in India.
Special Judge Ramkripal found Amin guilty of traveling on a forged Indian passport and imposed a Rs 10,000 fine. Amin, originally from the Rohingya camp in Cox's Bazar, was charged following a complaint by the ATS Varanasi unit.
The charges stem from Amin's unlawful acquisition of Indian documents, used to register land in West Bengal, and travel to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The case falls under sections of the IPC and the Foreigners Act.
