An Indian national has faced court over allegations of masterminding a marriage visa scam that targeted South Asian communities, involving over 150 partner visa applicants who were willing to pay large sums of money to remain in Australia.
Thirty-two-year-old Jagjit Singh is accused of being the main facilitator of the scam and has been charged with arranging four fake marriages for obtaining permanent residency.
However, the Australian Border Force says a total of 164 partner visa applications have been refused after they were found to be linked with Singh’s syndicate.
