The Delhi Police have arrested two individuals for allegedly facilitating fraudulent Indian identity documents for a Bangladeshi woman, allowing her to reside in India illegally for over a decade, officials reported on Thursday.

Sachin Chauhan (38) from Gautam Buddh Nagar and Sushminder (25) from Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, orchestrated a scheme enabling the woman to obtain counterfeit Indian documents, such as a birth certificate, Aadhar card, PAN card, and passport.
