Families Seek Court’s Aid in Tracing Indians Who Disappeared While Attempting Illegal Entry into the US

In response to the plea, the High Court has initiated a request for an official government response

Relatives of nine individuals who mysteriously vanished seven months ago during an attempt to enter the US illegally have recently approached the Gujarat High Court, seeking resolution and action through their filed petition, as per an IANS report.

The families have lodged a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) appealing to the bench led by the Chief Justice of the court. Recognizing the potentially life-threatening circumstances faced by the missing persons, the court has been implored to expedite the legal proceedings. In response to the plea, the High Court has initiated a request for an official government response.

As per the First Information Report (FIR) registered by Bharat Rabari’s wife at the Prantij police station, the unfolding events trace back to when Rabari was enticed by agents, namely Divyesh Patel and Mahendra Patel, who promised him a US Work Permit Visa.

The identities of the missing individuals have been established as follows: Ankit Patel from Gandhinagar, Kiran Patel from Mehsana, Avani Jeetendra Patel from Gandhinagar, Sudhir Patel from Mehsana, Pratik Patel from Kheda, Nikhil Patel from Mehsana, Champa Vasava from Ahmedabad (originally from Mehsana), Dhruvrajsinh Vaghela from Gandhinagar, and Bharat Rabari from Sabarkantha

Falling victim to their scheme, Rabari agreed to pay an astonishing Rs 70 lakh, making an initial payment of Rs 20 lakh and committing to settle the remaining balance upon a successful arrival in the US.

Subsequent police investigations have unveiled that Rabari and eight other individuals, among them two women, embarked on a perilous journey that took them through Amsterdam, the Port of Spain, and Dominica.

The identities of the missing individuals have been established as follows: Ankit Patel from Gandhinagar, Kiran Patel from Mehsana, Avani Jeetendra Patel from Gandhinagar, Sudhir Patel from Mehsana, Pratik Patel from Kheda, Nikhil Patel from Mehsana, Champa Vasava from Ahmedabad (originally from Mehsana), Dhruvrajsinh Vaghela from Gandhinagar, and Bharat Rabari from Sabarkantha.
