Bhatkhande scam kingpin still on run

Lucknow: The CID has intensified its probe into the Rs 3.31 crore scam at Bhatkhande Sanskriti University, carrying out searches to trace the alleged mastermind — administrative officer Ram Kumar — who remains absconding. Seven people, including two faculty members, were arrested on July 23. Ram Kumar allegedly manipulated tender and construction processes under the patronage of top officials. Contracts worth crores were reportedly handed out arbitrarily, often without any formal tender process — sometimes even on plain paper. He fled weeks ago as the probe loomed. CID sources say further arrests are likely as the investigation progresses.

Cops search for inmate who fled Kalamba open jail in Karnataka & Goa

Kolhapur: Police have been unable to locate Suresh Chothe, a 38-year-old resident of Gadhinglaj's Chothewadi, who escaped from the car washing centre operated by the open prison of Kalamba Central Jail on Thursday afternoon. Despite 48 hours of search efforts, the vehicle he used in his escape remains untraced. Police suspect that accomplices assisted in Chothe's getaway. The local crime investigation branch detained Chothe's cousin for providing him with Rs 13,000 upon his arrival in Gadhinglaj on Thursday. The Juna Rajwada police said a search is underway in the border area and Karnataka. They believe Chothe may have altered the car's number plate, suggesting the involvement of accomplices. Juna Rajwada inspector Sanjeev Zade said, "Inquiries are underway with his (Chothe's) relatives and friends. Teams have been deployed in parts of Gadhinglaj in Kolhapur as well as in Karnataka and Goa states to trace Chothe." Meanwhile, authorities at the Kalamba prison confirmed that Chothe was transferred to an open prison due to his good behaviour. It is believed he may have increased his contact with people while working at the car washing centre, leading to a possible conspiracy to escape using the car washing as an excuse.
