Four Telugu individuals have been arrested in the United States for allegedly running fake companies and coercing people into working for them. The arrests came after a report of suspicious activities at a residence in Princeton, where police discovered 15 individuals, including young women, allegedly forced into labor. Authorities seized crucial evidence such as laptops and cellphones during the raid. Further investigations revealed operations in Princeton, Melisa, and McKenzie, implicating Santosh Katkuri and his associates Dwarka, Chandan Dasireddy, and Anil Male. Arrest warrants have been issued for all four suspects involved in this illegal enterprise.
