LAHORE – A pair of Indian siblings have registered their marriage to one another to obtain Australian visa. The siblings convinced a court in Indian Punjab to register their union. The sister used the cousin brother’s documents who happens to be an Australian visa holder.
“According to our investigation, we have come to know so far that the brother was already a permanent resident of Australia and documents were forged to give his sister the identity of their cousin and they first got a marriage certificate from a gurdwara and it was registered in the sub-registrar’s office,” Inspector Jai Singh revealed.
“They have cheated the social system, legal system and religious systems, all for the craze, wish and desire to go abroad. We are conducting raids but they are on the run and we have not been able to arrest anyone”, he said.
Singh added that he had heard of “scams happening by people who want to go abroad, but something like this, a brother and sister marrying, is a first, and now it has come in front of our eyes we are all surprised and shocked”.
Shocking, indeed!
