The questioning of 74 Rohingyas arrested during raids by security agencies has also confirmed the activities of human smugglers who collect thousands to lakhs of rupees from illegal entrants into India. The NIA has booked 44 human smugglers active in Jaipur, Bengaluru, Chennai and Guwahati and seized over 200 Aadhaar and PAN cards that were used for giving Indian identities to Rohingyas who entered India illegally.
The human smugglers collect a hefty amount from Rohingyas, help them cross the border, acquire Indian identity and purchase property in Muslim-dominated areas.
The illegal settlement of Rohingyas has been allegedly prevalent in cities such as Aligarh, Mathura, Ghaziabad, Meerut and Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh; Bengaluru, Mangalore, Gulbarga and Kalaburagi in Karnataka; Malda, Murshidabad and Nadia in West Bengal; Jaipur, Jodhpur and Alwar in Rajasthan and other southern cities like Hyderabad, Chennai and Puducherry.
