The Special Task Force (STF) of the Odisha Police has arrested a Kashmiri man accused of faking his identity as a doctor and an official in the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), and marrying several women.
The man, identified as Sayed Ishaan Bukhari, 37, hails from Kupwara district of Kashmir. He was arrested from Neulapur village of Odisha’s Jajpur district on Friday. The STF booked him for impersonation, forgery, and alleged terror links as he was regularly in touch with two Pakistani individuals, and suspicious persons in Kerala.
“The smart-looking Kashmiri man is very deceptive. He could easily alter his identity and become an Army doctor, a high-ranking officer of the National Investigation Agency, or a PMO officer. He earned a handsome amount of money by fraud,” Odisha STF chief Jai Narayan Pankaj said.
