The alleged fraud came to light during physical measurement and document verification when the recruitment committee noticed discrepancies in the format and lettering of the certificate.

The school confirmed that the document had originally been issued as a Class 9 certificate and supplied entries from its scholar register, establishing the alleged forgery.
The irregularity was detected by members of a committee headed by Neeraj Kumar Thakur during verification conducted by Sub-Inspector Vinay Rathore, Assistant Sub-Inspector Gaurav Tiwari and Constable Naval Singh Rawat.
Based on their complaint, Jahangirabad police registered a case and arrested the suspect.
