Cops bust fake paper ring

Poonch: Two members of a gang producing fake documents and identity cards for assisting job-seekers have been arrested in Mendhar town in Poonch district, police said on Monday.

A weekend raid at a rented house yielded fake departmental seals, certificates, identity cards and driving licences leading to the arrest of tenant Qasim Nazir Khan, they said.

During interrogation, Khan disclosed the name of printing press owner Tarif Hussain Shah as his accomplice. A search was conducted in the presence of District Magistrate M.H. Shah and a cache of fake government stamps, seals and certificates was seized.

Police said the racket has been operational for four years and did not rule out a possible nexus with terrorists.
