Mangaluru, Sep 17: Ullal police have taken two suspects into custody for collecting money from 15 people after promising to obtain medical seats for them.
The suspects are identified as Sanjeeva (35) from Erode in Tamil Nadu and Thimmayya (40) from Madikeri. They had taken Rs 30 lacs each from students from Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
As the duo did not provide seats, some parents of the affected students, who grew suspicious, went to Deralakatte medical college and inquired. The college administration informed that the admission tests were over and the seats are filled.
These parents later called the suspects to Deralakatte saying that they will give more money to them. Ullal station police immediately arrested one of them when he turned up.
They have also taken another suspect into custody based on the details provided by the first accused and started questioning both of them.
