Kalaburagi: Seven persons were arrested on Saturday April 16 in connection with the police sub-inspector recruitment scam.
Veeresh Nidagunda, K. Praveen Kumar, a Raichur candidate, Aruna Patil of Kalaburagi, Chetana Nandagaon, a Raichur jail warden, and Suma, Siddamma, and Savitri, teachers at Jnanajyothi English Medium School, have all been arrested (invigilators).
According to sources, Veeresh is claimed to be the son of a Sedam Police Station Head Police Constable. In October 2021, Veeresh took the examination at Jnana Jyothi English Medium School on Kalaburagi’s Gokul road.
On his OMR sheet, he had only answered 21 of the questions, leaving the rest blank. However, the photocopy of his OMR sheet received from the recruitment cell shows that he has answered all of the questions.
The arrested accused were brought before the third JMFC Court on Saturday evening by CID.
