Former Senior Superintendent of Police Aditya Kumar, who was suspended for being accused of impersonating the Chief Justice of Patna High Court in a case related to cheating, surrendered in a court in Patna on Tuesday and was sent to jail. He had been absconding after being suspended from service in a case of disproportionate assets.
The suspended Indian Police Services (IPS) officer of the 2011 batch had appealed to the Supreme Court for relief but the apex court recently denied him bail and asked him to surrender within two weeks ending on December 6.
The Bihar police had been searching for the absconding IPS officer for a long time. In October 2022, the Economic Offences Unit had registered a case against him, following which he was suspended from the service.
