Nagpur: A court here
has directed the police to investigate and lodge cases against the
vice chancellor of a central university and three other officials
in an alleged fake migration certificate racket, a legal official
said.
Chief Judicial Magistrate D.H. Sharma of the Wardha District Court
passed the order Monday against Vibhuti Narain Rai, vice
chancellor of the Mahatma Gandhi Antarrashtriya Hindi
Vishwavidyalay (MGAHV), registrar Kailash Khamre, deputy registrar
Kadar Nawaz Khan and examination head K.K. Tripathi, said lawyer
Toofan Singh Akali, representing a student-complainant Rajeev
Suman.
When contacted by IANS, the MGAHU vice chancellor Rai, a retired
IPS officer from Uttar Pradesh, declined to comment on the issue.
He said: "I have nothing to say in this matter. You can write
whatever you want," before disconnecting the phone Tuesday
evening.
According to CJM Sharma's order, the head of Sewagram Police
Station has been directed to lodge a first information report
(FIR) under Criminal Procedure Code Sec. 153(C), for the offences
alleged in Suman's complaint.
After completion of the investigations, the police have been
directed to file its report under CrPC Sec. 173, CJM Sharma said
in his order.
The MGAHU is a central university and is the only one of its kind
in the country.
The MGAHU chancellor is Namwar Singh, while President Pratibha
Patil is the visitor of the university, situated in Wardha, around
80 km from here.
