The 42-year-old Aery, formerly of India, had pleaded guilty to duping persons in India into believing he could get them jobs here.

Assistant Crown attorney Rick Mosley said the scheme was: heartless and vicious' because it preyed on desperate persons who were particularly vulnerable to z sales pitch for a job.
Mosely said the scheme, which operated from May to July last year, must have diminished Canada's stature in the eyes of the public of India. The prosecutor said a jail sentence was required to show Canada can't be used as a base to prey on persons of the Third World.
Mosely said any.: economic gain from the scheme by Aery, a native of India and how a Canadian citizen, could not be proven. No one had actually travelled from India-to Canada trying to get a job. --�'};� A X-'X i\
