New Delhi, Jun 13 (Zee News): New Delhi: More trouble is likely in store for ex-Law Minster of Delhi Jitendra Singh Tomar, who is already embroiled in an alleged fake degree case, as sources from Delhi Police said on Saturday that his BSc degree too has been proven fake.
The Delhi Police, which took Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Jitendra Singh Tomar to Faizabad and Ayodhya as part of its investigation in the 'fake degree' case, has found that his graduation degree too is fake, ANI reported.
As per ANI, Delhi Police sources further said that verification of Jitender Singh Tomar's LLB degree is underway.
Delhi Police sources also said that Tomar had no knowledge about anything related to his educational qualification when questioned at the Faizabaad Awadh University and Ayodhya Saket College.
“No such degree has been issued by the University or college in his name,” said sources.
The investigating officers, however, found his name in the admission register of Vishwanath Singh Institute of legal Studies in Bihar's Munger.
Meanwhile, Tomar is being produced in the Saket Court here as his four-day police custody ends today.
According to news agency ANI, Delhi Police have asked for extension of Police custody of Jitendra Singh Tomar.
As the hearing continues, while Advocate Tarunveer Singh Khehar appeared as Special Public Prosecutor for Delhi Police, Delhi HC Bar Association Chairman Advocate Rajiv Khosala has been appointed as the lawyer for the former Delhi law minister.
However, it was confirmed on Friday that Tomar had passed law examination in 1998-99 from a Bihar college.
Officials present during the questioning of Tomar, who was brought from Delhi by police at Biswanath Law College in Munger, said on condition of anonymity that college registers revealed that the former minister had enrolled in it under roll number 10136 in 1994-95 session.
