Straightline International and Steven Brownstein are the names you can trust doing India criminal record searches.
On the wake of a "reputable' screening companies' prinicipals arrests Steven Brownstein had this to say: "First, in America, we're presumed innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunately, India does not work this way."
Continuing, Brownstein Said, "straightline has not used a third compnay vendor for any of its criminal record searches since they first started doing work in India."
"In fact,he stresses, "Our sister company, The Background Investigator, has promoted many conferences in India. It was then that I realised we must go it alone, even so far as offering record searches from Mumbai and Delhi to India firms."
Straightline International is the only background checking firm going directly to the Mumbai and Delhi city police for clearances.
"What amazes me, but comes as no surprise, is that at a prior NAPBS conference, when I was training a new sales person on how searches are done and what's wrong with India, an Indian salesperson admitted to my trainee and myself that American screening companies didn't care as long as they got a piece of paper saying it was done" "
Of course, that admission floored me."
Straightline International searches are provable and court tested throughout the years.
This comes on the wake of the following:
Vanaraj, 58, resident of Chennai, and H Asrani, 42, resident of Mumbai and director of CRP Technologies India Pvt Ltd, allegedly involved in fake police verification racket, were arrested by Central Crime Branch (CCB) police.
Following a complaint with RT Nagar police, the CCB launched a probe leading to busting the “racket spread across many states engaged by Mumbai-based company that had several multinational companies as its clients.”
CRP Technologies, involved in conducting background check of employees, “falsely” claimed quick and cost-effective criminal background verification with the help of police.
Many companies such as ICICI Bank, TCS, Wipro, Accenture, Infosys etc were its clients.
The company had sub-contracted it to Vanaraj. Investigations revealed that Vanaraj forged the seal and signature of many senior officers of Karnataka, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu police and issued police clearance certificates with the full knowledge of CRP Technologies.
