The Hindu  

The second batch, comprising 116 undocumented Indian immigrants, deported on the U.S. C-17 aircraft that landed at Punjab’s Amritsar International Airport on Saturday night said they were handcuffed and chained during the journey. Talking to media persons in Hoshiarpur, Daljit Singh, one of the deportees, said that they were “handcuffed with their legs chained” in the aircraft. Mr. Singh said he was duped by a travel agent who, instead of directly taking him to the U.S., resorted to the ‘dunki ’ route to illegally enter the United States. “We were handcuffed and our legs were chained during the journey,” Mr. Singh said in Hoshiarpur on Sunday.
