Police register case against 14, including constables, for embezzling money in exchange for fake medical college admission.
“Fourteen people, including two constables, were booked on Saturday (January 4, 2025) for embezzling ₹17 lakh from a student under the pretext of securing his admission to a medical college in Prayagraj,” a police official said.
Police said that a case was registered on Friday (January 3, 2025) against Kulbhushan alias Kuldeep Mishra, Rajan Tripathi, constables Narendra Singh and Ankit Tripathi and 10 unknown persons at Suriyawan police station here, following a court order.
According to the Station House Officer (SO) of Suriyawan police station, Arvind Kumar Gupta, the accused took ₹17 lakh from Neeraj Yadav and his father in exchange for securing Neeraj’s admission to the MBBS course at Motilal Nehru Medical College in Prayagraj.
Mr. Yadav had met Kulbhushan alias Kuldeep Mishra of Prayagraj and Rajan Tripathi of Jaunpur in 2021 during coaching in Varanasi.
Later, he met Constable Narendra Singh, a resident of Jaunpur, who was posted in the crime branch of Bhadohi police.
After taking the money, the accused provided Mr. Yadav with a forged admission card.
Despite complaining about the matter to both the police station and senior police officers, no FIR was initially registered.
