KPSC jobs scam: Ex-official under CID scanner withdraws advance bail pleas

A former KPSC official, T Prakash, who was served notices by the CID in recruitment scams involving 400 veterinary doctor and 384 gazetted probationer posts, has withdrawn his anticipatory bail pleas. Prakash, a retired assistant secretary in the KPSC, was a signing official on selection lists put out by the KPSC in recent years.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) searched his properties in August following allegations of fraud in the KPSC. The CID had also served notices to Prakash to take part in the investigations. The ED has reported finding incriminating handwritten notes detailing monetary transactions with KPSC aspirants at a KPSC official's property.
