Hyderabad: Four Rohingya refugees , including a couple, were arrested on Tuesday morning for obtaining Aadhaar cards through fraudulent means by the Rachakonda Special Operations Team (SOT) sleuths. The couple have four children from their marriage at the refugee camp in Balapur in the city, and they were handed over to the Child Welfare Committee . According to police, the accused, Md Arman, 32, and Md Rumana Akhter, 26, entered India separately in 2011 via Bangladesh when they were minors. Arman's brother, Md Nayeem, 20, entered India via Bangladesh in 2016. They stayed in the Rohingya refugee camp in Balapur. Arman operates vehicle battery business in Pedda Amberpet. Apart from the couple, police also arrested Nayeem and Mohammed Haris, a Rohingya working as a teacher at a madrasa in Hafeezbaba Nagar. Haris was arrested in 2019 too for possession of Aadhaar. In 2014, Arman obtained an Aadhaar card with the help of Haris from a MeeSeva centre in Manchal by providing a fake voter ID card and false declaration. Based on Arman's Aadhaar card and marriage declaration affidavit, Rumana also got her Aadhaar. Further, Nayeem too obtained the Aadhaar card in 2019 with the help of another Rohingya, Shoaib Malik, a resident of Balapur. "Using the Aadhaar card, he obtained a PAN card, voter ID card, driving licence, and even opened bank accounts. A suo motu case was registered at the Hayathnagar police station under the charges of forgery, cheating by giving false declaration before the govt officials, and obtaining Indian identity cards illegally," the Rachakonda police said in an official statement on Tuesday. Two other accused, Ayaz, a madrasa worker from Aghapally who helped Haris, in securing an Aadhaar card, and Shoaib, who helped Nayeem, were absconding. Police seized five Aadhaar cards, two PAN cards, five voter ID cards, a driving licence, two LIC policy bonds, three debit cards, a Bharat gas connection book, four bank passbooks, a cheque book, four birth certificates of Arman's children, and five cell phones from their possession.

Eight Rohingya people, including four children, who have illegally entered India from Myanmar and been found in possession of Indian identity cards were apprehended in Hyderabad on Tuesday, the Rachakonda police said. The accused used fake documents and fraudulent means to obtain Indian documents of identity and nationality claiming to be Indian nationals, the police said. They have been charged with forgery, abetment, cheating by giving false declarations before government officials, obtaining Indian identity cards illegally, and causing damage to India's integrity. The arrested people were identified as Md Arman, 32; Md Rumana Akther, 26; Md Nayeem, 20; and Md Haris, 33.

Two others, Ayaz and Shoaib Malik, are absconding, the police said. According to the police, Md Arman, Md Rumana Akther and Md Nayeem crossed the Myanmar border and illegally entered India in 2011. Arman enrolled himself with UIDAI and got himself an Aadhar card in 2014 from a Meeseva centre in Machal by suppressing facts and giving false declarations.
