Indian education agent charged in fake-admission-letter scandal in Canada
An Indian education agent accused of being at the centre of a scandal over fake Canadian college admission letters has been arrested in this country and is now facing criminal charges here.
Only licensed lawyers and consultants registered with the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants can legally offer immigration advice and services at a fee. Neither the Law Society of Ontario nor the consultants’ college show any records on their websites indicating Mishra was a member. Education agents are not regulated in Canada.
The charges against Mishra come in the wake of an international education scandal that has made headlines in Canada and India after a group of international students was flagged for deportation for allegedly using doctored admission letters to obtain their study permits.when they were flagged by border officials after they had finished their courses and applied for postgraduate work permits. Some cases were flagged during the students’ permanent residence application process.
“I want to thank CBSA’s criminal investigators for their hard work protecting Canadians and those who hope to come here.”“Our officers worked diligently to investigate these offences and we will continue to do our best to ensure those who break our laws are held accountable,” said Nina Patel, regional director general responsible for the agency.
