CBI v. Kerala Police Constable (then; Sub-Inspector of Police at Kollam at PR date) and others
The CBI press release states that the CBI Court, Thiruvananthapuram convicted then-Constables and [name withheld] of Kerala Police in a forgery case and sentenced each to three years RI with Rs.10,000 fine. The release states both men, working in the SP Special Branch office at Kollam, conspired with a Kollam travel agent to submit a passport application for a private person in the fictitious name 'Paul Samuel' with forged ration-card and school-register extracts, sending a clear police verification report to the Trivandrum passport office without any verification; CBI took over Cr.No.2/2005 of Vattiyoorkavu PS on Kerala High Court directions, and the absconding private applicant's case was split up.
