| CB books Edu deptt employee for impersonating as CM's PA, duping people | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 20: The crime branch of state police has registered a case against Mohammad Amin Khan for allegedly impersonating as PA to then J&K chief minister and duping people on the assurance of providing them jobs in government departments.
The matter had come to light after a a written complaint was lodged in this connection by Mohan Lal, son of Kaka Ram of Moultian Klan, Samba.
In his complaint, he said after he came into contact with Amin of Housing Colony, Bagh-e-Mehtab in Budgam, Srinagar, he introduced himself as PA to the chief minister. The meeting between them matured into a relationship after Amin became 'dharma' brother of Mohan's wife. He assured them that he, being the CM's PA, could arrange class IV jobs for their sons as he himself was the member of the selection committee and that some amount would have to be paid which was to be shared amongst other members of the committee.
The complainant allegedly paid Rs 25 lakh but no appointment order was issued. When he protested, the accused asked him to arrange some more candidates for backdoor appointments which were arranged and an amount of Rs 85 lakh was provided to the accused through bank transactions in A/c No 49630 of J&K Bank, Residency Road, Srinagar, and A/c Nos 6498 and 211071, 206030 of J&K Bank, HS High Street, Srinagar, and through cash. However till date nothing had happened and the accused had cheated him and duped him and others of their hard earned money.
The CB, on receipt of the complaint, started a probe and found that Amin, actually an employee of education department, civil secretariat and not PA to then CM, had duped a large number of innocent unemployed persons on the pretext of providing them government jobs. The A/c No SB-49630 provided by the accused to the complainant existed in the name of Amin daughter, Tawheeda Khan and an amount of Rs 29,83,730 was found deposited in this account whereas A/c No SB-21172 was in the name of one Mushtaq Ahmed Khan, son of Mohammad Akram Khan of Sarai Bala, Srinagar, and an amount of Rs 3,86,963 was found deposited through credit from different branches of Jammu province which clearly indicated that the accused in furtherance of a criminal conspiracy with his daughter and Mushtaq Khan by resorting to deceitful and fraudulent means and in sheer misuse of his official position being a government servant, received the huge amount illegally from the complainant and others in order to cause wrongful gains to themselves and wrongful loss to the victims.
The omissions and commissions on part of Amin and other two accused constitute offences punishable under sections 420, 406 and 120-B of RPC read with section 5(2) of PC Act, Svt 2006. Accordingly, a formal case was registered by CB against the accused. Investigation of the case was entrusted to DSP Abdul Wahid Giri. |
