BANGALORE: The police here have busted a racket that reportedly cheated 22 people from Uttar Pradesh promising visas to go to Saudi Arabia with the arrest of Mohammed Maulali (42) of Madeena Colony, Old Idgah, Gulbarga. The accused had allegedly colluded with a person from Saudi Arabia and had collected original passports and Rs. 8.7 lakh in cash from the victims at a hotel in Kalasipalya here. The racketeers had asked the victims to go to Escorts Hotel in Colaba in Mumbai to collect visas. But the accused had failed to turn up on the appointed day.
