Chaitanyapuri police, along with L.B. Nagar Special Operations Team, nabbed a gang that was allegedly preparing fake educational certificates to satisfy visa requirements prescribed by various consulates for overseas education or employment.
The organised gang involved an education consultancy at Chaitanyapuri, a software engineer, mediators and agents.
The incident came to light after a Kothapet resident, who intended to travel abroad for higher education, approached the police and said he was provided fake and forged certificates. The SL Overseas Educational Consultancy had provided him a set of the certificates and a recommendation letter with the emblem of Kakatiya University, Warangal, when he paid them ₹1 lakh towards visa processing.
