Hyderabad: Police have questioned a Telangana IPS officer for allegedly creating forged documents about some monetary transactions.
B Naveen Kumar, Joint Director of Telangana State Police Academy, was questioned after a case was registered against him and some of his kin after the wife of a retired IAS officer filed a complaint.
The complainant had accused them of creating fabricated documents of monetary transactions between them after her house in the city was taken on rent by a relative of the IPS official, they said.
The complainant later discovered that Kumar was also residing in that house.
She accused them of creating fabricated documents including a false loan agreement paper and lease deed showing a loan of Rs 42 lakh. They stopped paying the rent under that pretext, police said.
An investigation was taken up and two of the accused named in the case were already arrested and a notice was served on the IPS official, police said.
"We called him (IPS official) to verify the facts in connection with a forgery and cheating case registered wherein he has been cited as an alleged accused," a senior police official said.
The IPS official later told the media that it was a civil matter, and it was in court.
