According to police sources, about half of dozen more names have surfaced for their alleged involvement in the case and efforts are on to nab them.

The gang involved in the issue of all kinds of fake certificates had been operating in the district for a long time. However, in the past few months, the district administration was flooded with complaints about the large number of fake certificates from different departments. Taking note of the complaints, the district magistrate asked the police and the district administration officials to investigate the issue.

Consequently, the joint team of officials from the district administration and the police swung into action and arrested two persons from the court complex yesterday.

However, sources said that the recent arrest of the two person had exposed the involvement of many more people to the investigating team.
