Jammu and Kashmir Crime Branch has lodged a charge sheet against two individuals from Karnataka for defrauding a local resident of Rs 13 lakh under the guise of securing an MBBS seat for his son. The Economic Offences Wing of Crime Branch Kashmir initiated the legal action, citing violations of Sections 420 and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code.
The accused, Aquib Javeed and Mohd Ahtesham Ahmad, both hailing from Gulbarga, Karnataka, are at the center of the allegations. The victim, enticed by promises made by Dr Shamsu-Din from Al-Amin Medical College, Bijapur, Karnataka, handed over the money in hopes of securing his son’s admission, which never materialized.
An investigation by the Police Station Economic Offences Wing revealed a fraudulent scheme orchestrated by Aquib Javeed and his brother, Mohd Ahtesham Ahmad, who falsely guaranteed admission to KBN Medical College, Bijapur. The duo now face charges of cheating and criminal conspiracy as per the findings of the probe.
Jammu and Kashmir Police have intensified efforts to combat illicit activities, including drug trafficking and financial fraud, within the region.
