The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed a charge-sheet against three Myanmar nationals in a major international human trafficking case allegedly involving illegal trafficking and infiltration of foreign nationals, primarily of Rohingya origin, into India across the India-Bangladesh border.
The accused have been identified as Rabi Islam alias Rabiul Islam; Shafi Alam alias Sofi Alom, and Mohammad Usman. They are all permanent residents of Myanmar’s Maungdaw district, the agency said.
According to the NIA, the three had illegally entered India, in collusion with traffickers and touts, without any valid travel document. They were also involved in facilitating the infiltration of numerous other foreign nationals through unauthorised and illegal border routes, the charge-sheet said.
