THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Police with no clue about the accused who tried to impersonate a candidate during the PSC exam and went on the run. The investigation was further expanded after concluding that they had entered Tamil Nadu. A shadow team led by Poojapura CI is taking care of the investigation.

The police concluded that the person who was supposed to appear for the exam and the one who ran away during the biometric verification of the exam are absconding. It was found that someone else had come to write the exam for Amaljit, a native of Nemom.

The police had reached Amaljit's house. The family gave the information that he is not home. The family told the police that it was Amaljit himself who had come to write the exam and he had left the exam hall due to stomach pain. This was informed to them by Amaljit. The family told the police that he did not come home after that.

Search based on Mobile phone

The investigation is focusing on the mobile phone of Amaljit and his friends. His phone is switched off. The investigation focused on the tower location of the exam centre on that day will also be conducted with the help of the cyber department.

The investigation focusing on the bike which was used by the man who impersonated Amaljit to write the exam is also progressing but the CCTV footage of the escape on the bike is not clear. He escaped from Poojapura to Tirumala.

The impersonation attempt took place during the PSC examination at Poojappura Chinnamma Memorial Girls High School on Wednesday. The candidate ran away from the examination hall during the University Last Grade Servants examination which started at 7:45 am.

The candidate in room number 6 ran out with the hall ticket when an officer came to the classes with a biometric verification machine. Only candidates who scored more than 55.44 marks in the preliminary examination were given a chance to appear in the second stage examination. It is concluded that there is no need for Amaljit, who has secured high marks, to ask someone else to appear for the main exam. It is being investigated whether he passed the preliminary examination also through impersonation.
