Four people have been charged in relation to a human smuggling operation from St. Stephen into the United States. 43 year old Savita Singh of St. Stephen and 71 year old Vaughn McLuskey of Fredericton were arrested in New Brunswick while Ontario residents Mohammed Habib-Yusef, 53, and Ravindra Hariprasad, 36, were arrested in Scarborough, ON.

RCMP say more charges may be laid as they investigate two migrants from Guyana that the group was allegedly attempting to smuggle across the US border. All four of those arrested face charges of criminal conspiracy to violate immigration laws, and will appear in St. Stephen court May 14.
