New Delhi: The Delhi Police nabbed the alleged masterminds of the railway job racket on September 4. The police have recovered luxury cars from the accused.
The four arrested were identified as the masterminds — Sukhdev Singh (42), Sandeep Sidana (43) including their associates, Deepak (31) and Rahul (22), The Indian Express reported.
The police conducted raids across Delhi-NCR and arrested the masterminds after their identities were disclosed by two of the previously arrested accused. A Mercedes and a BMW purchased with defrauded money were recovered.
The police said Sukhdev worked in New Seelampur as a car dealer and sought help from Sandeep after incurring debts. The duo then decided to cheat railway job aspirants. Sandeep had assigned Sukhdev to run a job placement agency in Hoshiarpur to refer people to him. Meanwhile, Sandeep kept the agents Deepak and Rahul at the divisional railway manager (DRM) office and the railway hospital at Paharganj.
Both of them had easy access as they had lived at the railway quarters until a year ago, the police said. Deepak was also a contracted pump operator at the DRM office while Rahul’s uncle was a railway ambulance driver, while his mother used to work in the staff quarters, the police added.
When the aspirants were referred to them, Deepak and Rahul would take them inside the DRM office on a round after filling up forms, conduct physical examinations and take blood samples in the railway hospital to make the recruitment process seem credible, the police asserted.
