SP City Krishna Kumar Bishnoi said that the district police have also seized 9 four-wheelers and 30 bank accounts along with the nursing college building and flats of the owner. The owner and other accused who are already in jail, were running the college on forged documents, took excess admission against the sanctioned strength and destroyed the future of thousands of students, he added.

SP city said that the properties were earned through illegal activities and that the action taken by the administration was a warning to those involved in unlawful activities.
