| [Western Journal] Nearly a dozen Indian nationals face charges after they were accused of taking part in a visa fraud scheme that included fake robberies. The convenience store robberies were staged so that clerks could falsely claim on immigration applications that they were crime victims, according to a Department of Justice news release. Six defendants live in Massachusetts, two live in Ohio, one lives in Mississippi, and one lives in Kentucky. Another who lived in Massachusetts has already been deported. All were charged with one count of conspiracy to commit visa fraud: The release said that the fake robberies began in 2023. The alleged purpose of the staged robberies "was to allow the clerks present to claim falsely that they were victims of a violent crime on an application for U non-immigration status (U Visa)," the release said. "A U Visa is available to victims of certain crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and who have been helpful to law enforcement in the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity," the release added.
