Eddy Kang finally arrested

Migration Alliance covered the story of Eddy Kang despite letters and threats from Eddy Kang's numerous lawyers.   With over 85,000 hits on our original news story regarding Eddy Kang it was obvious something was wrong.  Our original story was called 'Clients receive death threats, no job, no visa and no refund' on 16 October 2013.  Here's the story in 'The Australian' today:

AUTHORITIES have swooped on a man who ­allegedly targeted international students with false promises of a subclass-457 work visa in ­exchange for up to $45,000.

South Korean-born Eddie Kang, 51, a director of 20 registered companies, allegedly ­lodged visa applications under var­i­ous business names knowing they were likely to be rejected.

Clients demanding refunds were refused or threatened with violence, prosecutors will allege.

Mr Kang was arrested on Wednesday after a six-month ­investigation that culminated in a multi-agency operation that yielded laptops, computers, cameras and files from properties in North Sydney and inner-­western Rozelle.

Other stories we ran on this were 'Eddy Kang continues to inflict harm' and 'Victims of Eddy Kang action group meeting' which was held at the Migration Alliance office on York Street in Sydney.  Needless to say we are pleased he has finally been swooped on. 

Eddie Kang was arrested today on Fraud charges under the Crimes Act and Misleading Conduct under Consumer Law. He has been bailed to appear in court on the 20th March. View the news of this on Channel 7.

It has been a long time coming for any action to be taken against Kang.

The Department of Fair Trading has done what the Department of Immigration could not and what the NSW Police thought was all too hard to tackle.

Jay Bishop is the Principle Investigator at Fair Trading and has been working on gathering evidence to charge Kang for a number of months. We understand that Mr. Bishop put off taking annual leave until the task force had secured Kang's arrest.

Congratulations to Jay and his team at Fair Trading for making something happen where many of Kang's victims had given up hope Eddie Kang would ever be stopped.

Thanks to Karl Konrad for his efforts in assisting to bring Eddy Kang down.

    Kieran kelly is a lawyer who is ted E kang's dog. Ted E Kang is giving biscuits to him so he is saving Ted from going to jail and using civil and criminal laws term vedy well. Kieran kelly is an Austrslian. When Australian starts cheating then people like Ted and Joseph Choi certainly does. Ncat Court, local court and police,federal police, MARA, Asic, Fair Trading all are bribe taker. Hungry of money.
