Twenty-two bogus admissions have been confirmed till now, including some from top North campus colleges such as Hindu and Kirori Mal. Over a dozen more cases are in the process of being verified, joint commissioner (crime) Ravindra Yadav told TOI, adding that the figure is expected to rise. The gang secured admissions by forging mark sheets, caste certificates and other papers. Several college officials, who allegedly connived with the suspects, will soon be arrested, police said.
