Police have succeeded in unearthing a net that was distributing duplicate bus passes to students.
The activity of preparing fake passes was taking place in a computer centre on Barline road in the City. Police, who conducted a raid on the centre on Wednesday, seized more than 15 duplicate bus passes, a hard disc, printer, scanner and other tools. A total of four persons have been detained for questioning. Abdul Javed, Mohammed Imran, Prakash and Rajani are the four, who have been questioned thoroughly.
A squad of Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) had conducted an inspection in a bus plying between N R Pura and Mysore on Wednesday morning, working on a tip off. Mohammed Imran and Abdul Javed had been caught using the duplicate passes.
They informed that they had got them from a computer centre in Chikmagalur. Police took immediate actions on the basis of a case filed by inspecting officer Shivaprakash.
Police have indicated doubt over a bigger plot behind the act.
