Dhanraj Raghubir

Dhanraj Raghubir, who is alleged to be responsible for a visa fraud where he received over $1 million from persons for visa application fees and had been read  17 charges in relation to the scheme, was yesterday found guilty on one of the charges, and sentenced to two years in prison by a city magistrate.

Magistrate Leron Daly yesterday sentenced Raghubir, 27, of Gordon Street, Kitty, a computer technician, to two years in prison after she found him guilty of defrauding Natasha Cheddi of $64,000, on November 15, 2015 at Georgetown, under the guise of either making payments to the Bank of Baroda for United States of America (USA) visa applications, or for bank draft fees related to United Kingdom and Canadian visa applications.
