వాషింగ్టన్‌: హెచ్‌1బీ వీసా విధానం కింద తప్పుడు వీసా పత్రాలు సమర్పించాడన్న కేసులో న్యూహాంప్‌షైర్‌లో భారతీయ సంతతికి చెందిన ఓ వ్యాపారవేత్తకు ఫెడెరల్‌ న్యాయస్థానం మూడేళ్ల జైలు శిక్ష విధించింది. దాంతో పాటు 40,000 అమెరికా డాలర్ల జరిమానా కూడా చెల్లించాలని ఆదేశించింది.

వివరాల్లోకెళితే.. భారతీయ సంతతికి చెందిన రోహిత్‌ సక్సేనా అమెరికాలో ‘స్యాక్స్‌ ఐటీ గ్రూప్‌ ఎల్‌ఎల్‌సీ’ పేరిట ఓ సంస్థను నిర్వహిస్తున్నారు. విదేశీ కార్మికులను తీసుకోవడానికి ఇతర సంస్థలతో ఒప్పందం కుదుర్చుకునేవాడు. అయితే కాలిఫోర్నియా రాష్ట్రం క్యూపర్టినోలోని ఓ సంస్థ కోసం సక్సేనా తన సంస్థ విదేశీ కార్మికులను నియమిస్తున్నట్లు 2014 మార్చి నుంచి 2015 డిసెంబరు మధ్య అమెరికా పౌరసత్వం, వలస సేవల(యూఎస్‌సీఐసీ) కింద మొత్తం 45 మోసపూరిత వీసా దరఖాస్తులు దాఖలు చేశాడు. దీనిపై న్యాయస్థానం విచారణ చేపట్టగా.. తాను తప్పుడు ప్రకటనలు చేసినట్లు మే 1న తన నేరాన్ని అంగీకరించాడు.

కాలిఫోర్నియాలోని సదరు సంస్థతో కార్మికుల నియామకాలపై ఒప్పందం కుదుర్చుకున్నట్లు సక్సేనా వద్ద ఎటువంటి ఆధారాలు లేవు. పైగా ఆ సంస్థ విదేశీ కార్మికులను తమ సంస్థలో నియమించుకోవడం లేదని తెలిపింది. అతను ఈ సంస్థ పేరు చెప్పి వారిని వేరే సంస్థల్లో నియమించినట్లు తెలిసింది.

CONCORD, N.H. – Acting United States Attorney John J. Farley announced that Rohit Saksena, 42, of Manchester, New Hampshire, has been sentenced to serve three years of probation and pay a $40,000 fine for filing false visa applications.

According to court documents, Saksena is the president and chief executive officer of Saks IT Group LLC, a company based in Manchester, New Hampshire. Saks IT Group contracts with other companies to provide information technology consulting services and places its employees with other companies to provide professional technology services.

From approximately March 2014 through approximately December 2015, Saksena filed 45 fraudulent visa applications with United State Citizenship and Immigration Services falsely claiming that Saks IT Group was hiring foreign workers to provide professional services to a company in Cupertino, California, US Attorney’s office said in a statement.

Placeholder-prosecution-trial-jail.jpg?rThe California company had not entered into a contract with Saks IT Group and had no jobs available for the foreign workers. Saksena knew that the foreign workers would not be employed at the California company.

Saksena filed the false visa applications under the H-1B visa program. That program allows American businesses to temporarily employ foreign workers with specialized or technical expertise in a particular field like accounting, engineering, or computer science when qualified U.S. workers cannot be found to fill those positions.

Under the H-1B visa program, a U.S. employer may employ a highly educated foreign worker subject to strict conditions, which include a demonstrated need for the foreign worker to fill a vacant position and assurance that the U.S. company will employ the foreign worker.

Saksena filed visa applications that falsely claimed jobs awaited the foreign workers at the California company. He supported those applications with bogus Independent Contractor Agreements between the California company and Saks IT Group and with sham Work Orders that purported to show that the foreign worker would provide professional services for the California company. Some of the false visa applications resulted in foreign workers receiving H-1B visas. Many of the fraudulent applications were denied once Saksena’s deception came to light.

Saksena previously pleaded guilty on May 1, 2017, to making false statements to United States Citizenship and Immigration Services.

This case was investigated by the Diplomatic Security Service of the U.S. State Department; the U.S. Department of Labor, Office of the Inspector General, Division of Labor Racketeering; and Homeland Security Investigations. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Mark S. Zuckerman.
