**Navi Mumbai, India** – Riya Arvind Barde, a Bangladeshi adult film star known as Aarohi Barde, was arrested by Hill Line police on Thursday for illegally residing in India using forged documents.

The arrest followed a tip-off about women staying illegally in India, leading to a series of raids across Navi Mumbai. Eight Bangladeshi women, including Barde, were apprehended in separate cases. The women, who worked as domestic helpers, had entered India without valid documents.

Police had been investigating Barde’s identity for a year after receiving a complaint regarding her credentials. The investigation revealed inconsistencies in her birth certificate, school leaving certificate, and passport, listing three different places of birth: West Bengal’s North 24 Parganas, Hooghly, and Achalpur in Maharashtra’s Amravati district.

An FIR was filed against Barde under sections related to cheating, forgery, common intention, and the Foreigners Act. Police are also searching for four accomplices involved in the forgery and cheating case.

According to reports, Barde was residing in India with her mother Anjali Barde/Ruby Sheikh, brother Ravindra/Riyaz Sheikh, and sister Ritu/Moni Sheikh. Her mother allegedly married Arvind Barde from Amravati to facilitate their continued stay in India. The family is currently residing in Qatar.

Barde’s career also included work in adult films under Raj Kundra Productions and other movie projects. She was previously arrested in Mumbai in connection with a prostitution case under the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act.
