Telangana police are on the look-out for the kingpins, having stumbled upon evidence that some candidates tried to fraudulently secure top score in the TSSPDCL lineman recruitment test held last Sunday.
While Ghatkesar police of Rachakonda Commissionerate already registered a case of cheating in this connection, Hyderabad Police had picked up some persons on the suspicion of complicity in the matter. Last Sunday, a recruitment test for 1,000 lineman posts was held by the TSSPDCL at different centres in southern districts of the State.
Police got a tip-off that a gang had planned to aid and abet some candidates to secure the posts. “The kingpins in the case had asked the candidates to carry mobile phones inside the exam hall hoodwinking the invigilators,” a police officer associated with the investigation of the case and seeking anonymity said.
