Kushinagar,

09 March (HS): A 28-year-old man was detained in Kushinagar district on Monday

after reportedly impersonating an Indian Foreign Service officer, according to

police officials. After getting information about a guy acting as an IFS official,

the Kushinagar Superintendent of Police initiated action and dispatched teams

to apprehend the offender. On March

8, police apprehended Pawan Chauhan, a resident of the Hata region, and seized

his identification card, two false Aadhaar cards, an election card, five ATM

cards, three seals, an inkpad, a notebook, two mobile phones, and two protocol

papers.

A case was

filed against the accused in this regard, and he was imprisoned on Monday.

Additional

Superintendent of Police Siddharth Verma stated that the accused, Pawan

Chauhan, admitted to falsifying papers and illegally getting unjust advantages

from several government departments.

Posing as

an IFS official, he created fabricated procedures based on a forged

identification card and forwarded them to several government departments via

email to legitimize his scam.

He uses

this media to deceive young people from rural regions by offering them

employment, promotions, or other government perks. The false Aadhar cards,

voter cards, ATM cards, seals, ink pads, and other materials seized from him

are being utilized for similar fraud and forgery, according to the Additional

SP.
