A new scandal has rocked the White House involving illegal aliens hiring fake robbers to attack them so they can get a special asylum visa.
Six individuals have been charged in a scam in which crimes were staged so that the migrants could apply for special asylum visas, CWB Chicago reported.
“Officials believe hundreds of people, including some who traveled from out of town, posed as customers in dozens of businesses across Chicago and elsewhere, all hoping to win favorable immigration status by becoming ‘victims’ of pre-arranged ‘armed robberies,’” the report said.
“During a staged hold-up in Bucktown last year, one of the ‘robbers’ accidentally fired their gun, severely injuring a liquor store clerk, according to one source. During that caper alone, five ‘customers’ were ‘robbed,’” it said.
The indictment named Bhikhabhai Patel, 51, of Elizabethtown, Kentucky; Nilesh Patel, 32, of Jackson, Tennessee; Ravinaben Patel, 23, of Racine, Wisconsin; and Rajkumar Patel, 32, of Jacksonville, Florida, as suspects who portrayed themselves as victims.
