美设野鸡大学'钓鱼执法'
US federal authorities created a fake university that they say snared 21 people on charges they conspired to help more than 1,000 foreigners fraudulently keep or obtain student or work visas. The University of Northern New Jersey was set up in 2013 staffed by undercover agents, but without classes or instructors. The defendants whose arrests were announced Tuesday knew the school was bogus, as did the foreigners, authorities said. But they didn't know it was set up as part of a sting by undercover agents from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The defendants are charged with conspiracy to commit visa fraud and conspiracy to harbor aliens for profit. An official said the students - mostly from China and India - have been identified and will be dealt with by immigration authorities, but won't be prosecuted.
美国联邦当局办了一所野鸡大学钓鱼执法。当局称这所野鸡大学诱捕了21人，他们被指控共谋协助千余名外籍人员骗取留学签证或工作签证。于2013年设立的北新泽西大学的工作人员是卧底探员，该大学不设课程，没有讲师。被告人被捕的消息于5日公布，当局称被告人、涉案外籍人员都知道这是一所野鸡大学，但不知道这是美国移民海关执法局密探设下的圈套的一部分。被告人面临共谋实施签证欺诈和共谋庇护外国人获利两项罪名指控。涉案学生大部分来自中国和印度，一官员称学生们的身份已确认，将由移民局处理，但不会被起诉。
