Indian national Mohammad Sultan Abu Bakar Kadir was extradited from Singapore and sent back home to Mumbai on Sunday, to be prosecuted by Indian law enforcement authorities for allegedly running a job scam racket and cheating thousands of dollars from over 30 Indian workers with promises of jobs in Singapore.
Also known as “Captain Kadir,” the accused ran Worldwide Shipping Management – a Singapore-based recruitment firm offering jobs to migrant seafarers in local shipping firms. The company’s Mumbai operations were handled by his wife, Mureeza.
