NEW YORK - Two New York men have been arrested for allegedly staging a series of armed robberies that would make the "victims" eligible for immigration benefits, said the Department of Justice.
Rambhai Patel and Balwinder Singh were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit visa fraud. Beginning in March 2023, Patel and his co-conspirators, sometimes including Singh, staged armed robberies in eight convenience/liquor stores and fast food restaurants across the United States.
