Brijesh Mishra, notorious immigration agent criminally charged by CBSA

In a significant move, the Canadian Border Service Agency stated today that Brijesh Mishra, an Indian citizen, has been with a number of immigration-related offenses.

The CBSA’s Criminal Investigations Section brought the charges, which are based on information gathered during a thorough investigation into Mr. Mishra’s activities in Canada.

Brijesh Mishra was charged with unauthorised representation or advice for consideration under IRPA Section 91(1), counselling misrepresentation under IRPA Section 126, misrepresentation (direct or indirect misrepresentation) under IRPA Section 127(a), misrepresentation (communicating false information) under IRPA Section 127(b), and noncompliance with the Act under IRPA Section 124(1)(a). These charges emphasise the seriousness of the alleged actions as well as the possible impact on Canada’s immigration system.

Following information submitted to the agency on Mr. Mishra’s status in Canada and his alleged involvement in activities related to counselling misrepresentation, the CBSA started an inquiry into him. CBSA officials meticulously obtained evidence, resulting to the charges lodged against Mr. Mishra, as part of their commitment to maintaining the integrity of Canada’s immigration system.

Marco Mendicino, Minister of Public Safety, responded to the statement by thanking CBSA criminal detectives for their work in protecting Canadians and those aspiring to study in Canada. He stated, “Our government is taking action against those who are responsible for fraud while protecting those who’ve come here to pursue their studies.”

Nina Patel, Regional Director General of the CBSA’s Pacific Region, reiterated the sentiment and underlined the agency’s commitment to holding those who violate immigration rules accountable. She praised the CBSA officers for their hard work in investigating these crimes and promised the public that the agency will continue to work to protect the integrity of Canada’s immigration system.

Brijesh Mishra’s charges demonstrate the Canadian government’s dedication to combating fraudulent activities while allowing real persons who want to contribute to Canada to do so. The lawsuit is expected to provide more light on the alleged immigration crimes and their potential implications as the judicial proceedings progress.

Anyone with information about immigration fraud or other criminal acts is encouraged to come forward and report it to the CBSA. The agency is committed to protecting Canadians and upholding the integrity of Canada’s immigration system.
