JOIN USThe culprit, Madhu, a BSc dropout and resident of Magadi Road, was apprehended At Seshadripuram, when he came to collect duplicate seals and rubber stamps of BU from a shop there.
Madhu’s shady deals came to light when he contacted a stationery shop owner for making a fake rubber stamp of the Registrar Evaluation of Bangalore University. The shop owner promptly informed the police.
Madhu used to contact failed students of Bangalore University and promise them fake marks cards by charging around Rs 3,000 apiece. He would first collect genuine marks cards from gullible students and forge it with good marks, signature and seal of the officials concerned.
Police have also seized nearly 60 to 70 documents. “We suspect the involvement of some BU officials in the case,” said a police officer.
