<h1>ED Raids Visa Consultancy Firms for Alleged Immigration Fraud; Seizes Documents, Cash, and Digital Devices.</h1> The Enforcement Directorate conducted raids on three visa consultancy firms in Ludhiana and Chandigarh as part of a money laundering investigation related to alleged immigration fraud. The investigation stems from complaints by the US Embassy's Overseas Criminal Investigations office, accusing companies like Red Leaf Immigration Private Limited and others of forging documents for ineligible visa applicants aspiring to study or work in the US. The firms allegedly manipulated applicants' financial records and charged high commissions. The raids resulted in the seizure of incriminating documents, digital devices, and cash. The accused used proceeds from these activities to acquire properties and divert funds into various accounts.
