The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted raids at over 55 locations in 10 Indian states, arresting 44 middlemen involved in a pan-India human trafficking network facilitating Rohingya Muslims' entry from Bangladesh. The agency, in collaboration with Border Security Force and state police, dismantled the illegal immigration support networks, seizing forged documents, Indian and foreign currency. NIA plans to seek assistance from Bangladeshi authorities. The operation followed Assam Police's discovery of the racket in February, underscoring the serious national security concern. India asserts the threat posed by illegal Rohingya immigrants, citing links to anti-national activities and terror organizations. [ Representative Image from Twitter ]
