Indian man charged for immigration fraud targeting students in Canada

Canadian authorities have charged an Indian man, Brijesh Mishra, for issuing fraudulent university letters of acceptance to Indian students and other immigration-related criminal offences. Mishra is facing five charges under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Canada is a popular destination for international students since it is relatively easy to obtain a work permit. Earlier this year, several students from India had been served deportation papers for using forged documents to enter Canada in an alleged immigration scheme.
