The gang was involved in producing fake documents in court to bail out accused and criminals from jail.
The Gautam Budh Nagar police have arrested six people who forged documents to be produced in court to bail out accused across the city, from Surajpur court area on Wednesday.
According to the police, the accused have been identified as Kamal of the Baghpat district, Shekhar, Lokendra, Dayanand, Devendra, Raju, all natives of Ghaziabad and nearby districts were arrested from Surajpur court while they had come to be a fake witness in a case after producing fake documents for bail.
"We had received a tip-off about such an incident and a gang coming to the court for the commissioning of the crime. We raided a park outside the court premises and arrested all the six persons while they were preparing fake documents to be presented before the court," said Ajay Pal Sharma, SP, Gautam Buddh Nagar.
The gang was involved in producing fake documents in court to bail out accused and criminals from jail.
"Kamal, who was working as an agent in a lower court for many advocates, was the mastermind behind the racket. He was well versed with the bail procedures for past many years," said Sharma.
The police recovered fake rubber stamps of government and police departments, solvency certificates, Aadhaar cards, bank passbooks, ration cards, PAN cards, driving licences, voter ID cards and visiting cards of many lawyers from them.
During interrogation, it was also revealed that several advocates are suspected to be hand in glove with the arrested accused as they had represented the accused in criminal cases and by submitting forged documents got them out on bail.
"Upon interrogating the arrested persons it was revealed that few advocates from Gautam Buddh Nagar and Ghaziabad court are also involved with them in the forgery. We have launched a probe into the case and will initiate actions against those found guilty" said Sharma.
The police said that so far the gang has submitted fake documents in the court number 12, 13, 15 and ACJM court number 7 and 9 in Gautam Buddh Nagar.
