"Yes, police have completed investigation in the scholarship scam and other financial irregularities committed in the BGSBU. We have also received the report from Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL), Jammu. Nobody found involved in the scam will be spared," said SSP Rajeshwar Singh. During investigation, it was established that some expired scholarship cheques were made valid for payment by the accused allegedly by putting the fake signatures and stamps of Director Social Welfare and Director Tribal Affairs and a few cheques were also alleged to have been signed by then registrar. Following protests by students against the registrar, he was removed from the post. The investigation was handed over to ASP on the demand of students. Both the officials had denied the allegations against them and also refused having put any signatures on the expired cheques to make them valid for payment. The SSP refused to divulge the FSL finding in the case. The scam came to light when an ex-student of BGSBU had produced his scholarship cheque No 263897 dated September 22, 2013 for Rs 22,300 in the bank for transfer of money into his account. He was allegedly denied payment by the bank claiming that payment for the produced cheque was already made.

Further inquiry was initiated and later he was terminated from service and branch manager approached police for action against him. He was booked in case FIR No 6/2015 under sections 420, 467, 468, 471, 489 and 109 of RPC at Darhal police station. During police investigation, it was established that Aizaz in nexus with Muzzafar Hussain, posted in scholarship branch of BGSBU, allegedly delayed the distribution of scholarship cheques among the beneficiaries deliberately on one or the other pretext. When students left the university after completing their studies, Muzzafar and Aizaz allegedly with the help of senior officials put fake stamps and signatures to make these cheques bearer/valid for payment. "The modus operandi used by these persons to get the payments against these cheques was that Muzzafar on phone was providing the cheque numbers and the amount to Aizaz posted at Raikiban in Darhal branch of J&K Bank. Aizaz used to transfer the amount into the fake accounts created on the names of his and Muzzafar's relatives while the cheques remained physically in the BGSBU records," a senior police officer earlier posted in the district had said. |
