The Salem Tabri police in Ludhiana have filed charges against Amandeep Kaur, a Canada-based woman, her family, and a matchmaker for cheating and forgery. The case arose from a complaint by Jarnail Singh, whose son Maan Singh married Amandeep Kaur in February 2024, allegedly to facilitate her move to Canada. After arriving in Canada in October 2024, Amandeep secured Canadian permanent residency by February 2025. However, shortly after obtaining residency, she reportedly began disputes with her husband and eventually left him. The complaint alleges that Amandeep entered the marriage with the intention of immigrating and abandoned her husband after achieving her goal. Additionally, discrepancies in two employment certificates submitted for her immigration application were uncovered, leading to allegations of forgery. The police have registered an FIR under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and are continuing their investigation.
