Finally, UP police register case against Kandhuvaddi' Kamaraj
The professor took the case to Saidapet court, which asked the police to register FIR against Kamaraj.
Chennai: The Uttar Pradesh police finally registered a case against 'Kandhuvaddi' Kamaraj, the man behind the foisted case against MMC Prof. M.Sudheer who was jailed in Lucknow for 23 days.
In the FIR registered on Monday, the Lucknow police booked Kamaraj, his money lending mafia friends Sarfaraz Ahamed, Piyush Mishra and Sachin Tandon along with two UP cops named Haridas Chaurasia and Narendra Kumar Mishra besides a goon from that city named Rambachan Yadav who came to Chennai with the cops to pick up the professor, under IPC sections of cheating, forgery and extortion.
It may be recalled that On February 24, Dr Sudheer was arrested from his residence by the UP police in a cheating case filed against him in Lucknow though he had no dealings with anybody in UP.
It emerged later that the UP police action was triggered by Kamaraj from whom the professor had borrowed Rs 20 lakh in 2011. He had paid back the principal and interest, but Kamaraj kept on asking for more money and professor refused to pay.
The professor took the case to Saidapet court, which asked the police to register FIR against Kamaraj. The money lender, who is believed to be a college mate of former UP CM Akhilesh Yadav, used his network in UP and handed over blank papers signed by professor to Sarfaraz Ahamed and Piyush Mishra. They lodged a false cheating case in against the professor saying he had collected '1 crore promising that he would facilitate government permission for a medical college, police here said. The professor was then arrested and taken to UP.
The Chennai police intervened after collecting evidence which showed the UP police case against the professor was a concocted one and submitted the same to UP authorities to secure the bail for the professor who returned to Chennai three days back after spending 23 days in Lucknow jail.
