They even kept the original passports of their victims. The DCB arrested Divyej Bhut, proprietor of Vidhi visa consultancy and Hitesh Dathaliya, a resident of Nava Vadaj in connection with the scam.

Deputy superintendent of police, DCB, Tarun Barot busted the gang after a victim came forward to file a police complaint.

According to police sources, Manish Panchal, a resident of Navavadaj filed a complaint with the DCB in which he accused the two of cheating him. "The duo took Rs2 lakh from Panchal and also kept his original passport. They then told him that he needs to deliver Rs3 lakh after his visa is delivered," a police source said.

Panchal was promised a visa for Canada. However, he neither received his visa nor his passport. DCB later found that the two had cheated several others in a similar manner.
