London: Many Indian citizens have been arrested in Britain for violating visa conditions. All of them had indulged in illegal business by violating Indian visa rules, but were caught by the British authorities. British immigration officials have arrested 12 Indian nationals, including 11 men and one woman, on suspicion of illegally working in a mattress and cake factory in violation of visa conditions.
Immigration enforcement officers raided a unit linked to the mattress business in the West Midlands region of England, according to a statement issued by Britain’s Home Office on Wednesday. Officials had received intelligence that illegal work was being done there. According to the statement, authorities have arrested seven Indian nationals on charges of working illegally. Four more Indian nationals were arrested at a nearby cake factory, accused of violating visa conditions, according to the Home Office.

Apart from this, an Indian woman has also been arrested on charges of immigration crimes. Officials said the four people have been detained pending consideration of their removal from Britain or deportation to India. The remaining eight people have been granted bail on the condition that they report to the Home Office regularly. Meanwhile, if the allegation that the factory in question employed illegal workers and required pre-employment tests were not conducted, both the units could face fines if it is proved. (Language)
