The National Investigation Agency arrested six human traffickers and conducted searches at various locations in the Guwahati trafficking case, busting multiple rackets in border areas of Assam, West Bengal, Meghalaya, Karnataka, and other parts of the country.
The case pertained to the illegal trafficking of Rohingya Muslims into the Indian territory to re-settle them on the basis of forged Indian identity documents.
The mastermind of the racket, Kumkum Ahmed Chaudhury, was operating this illegal trafficking network from Bengaluru. Other active members of this racket were also spread in various parts of the country.
During the searches conducted, NIA found a large number of incriminating documents, articles, and digital devices have been seized.
