The accused was in possession of more than 300 fake certificates and mark sheets which were to be delivered to a number of clients, says Senior Officials
A Special Investigation Unit of the Crime Branch has busted a syndicate involved in preparing and circulating fake certificates and mark sheets of different universities and colleges situated in various parts of the country.
The accused was in possession of more than 300 fake certificates and mark sheets which were to be delivered to a number of clients, senior officials said.
According to the senior officials, the forgery came to the fore when an information was received on March 7, regarding the preparation and supply of fake certificates of different colleges by one suspect identified as Kapil Goyal. Gathering more information, the police team laid a trap near the out gate of Inter-State Bus Terminal on Ring Road and around 6 pm Goyal was spotted in a red-coloured car and was arrested.
"On searching, one laptop containing pro forma of fake certificates and mark sheets of different universities was recovered. On further interrogation, the accused led the team to his office at Jaina Tower 2, District Center, Janakpuri, where a complete set-up for the preparation of fake certificates was found to be installed. Four laptops, printers, scanner and other machines along with more than 300 fake certificates, holograms and bundle of papers which were to be used for this purpose were seized from his office," said Alok Kumar, Joint Commissioner of Police, Crime.
Goyal told police that after completing B.Com from MDU Rohtak, he appeared in several competitive exams, but could not succeed. His brother Happy, who was already involved in the preparation of fake mark sheets, lured Goyal into joining his business. Happy, however, was arrested in 2016. Goyal confessed to having prepared and supplied approximately 5000 fake certificates and mark sheets of various colleges, Kumar said.
"The accused was in touch with different coaching centres and agents at various locations all over India through e-mails and Whatsapp. These agents arranged for customers and sent details to the accused, who, after getting the money transferred to his account, used to deliver the fake document through courier. He charged Rs 7,000 from the agents against one set of fake certificates. Further, these coaching centres or agents charged the money from individual candidates," the Joint Commissioner said.
