Dhubri: Dhubri police arrested one Sagar Ghose on Wednesday night for allegedly attempting to take admission at a school at the higher-secondary level using a fake marksheet.
Raid Uncovers Fake Marksheet Racket
On Wednesday, police raided the English Education Academy (EEA) and recovered laptops, torn-up marksheets, a printer, and other materials, thereby busting an alleged fake marksheet racket. Sagar was detained for interrogation.
Police Custody and Investigation
A police source confirmed that Sagar was produced before a magistrate on Thursday and was remanded in three-day police custody for further interrogation. Police plan to investigate links beyond Dhubri, as EEA has a number of branches in western Assam districts, the source added.
Main Accused on the Run
The source said the main accused is the head of EEA, Jahidul Hussain, who has been on the run since the raid. Authorities are actively searching for him to uncover the full extent of the racket.
This case highlights the ongoing issue of document forgery in educational admissions, and police are determined to dismantle the network involved.
