Telgi Stamp Paper scams

It is no less than a divine mistake where stamp paper counterfeiting can be consequential in a scam worth Rs. 20,000 crore touching 12 Indian states. The mastermind Karim Abdul Telgi was more of a genius crook than a conventional criminal. His imitations were being sold to share-broking organizations, financial and insurance institutions. Another interesting fact associated with this scam is the alleged unresponsiveness of the Special Investigation Team backed by powerful politicians. Only after social activist Anna Hazare filed a PIL against this sensational crime, no proper actions were taken even after knowing them. The stamp duplicates were made with involvement of immoral Indian Security Press officials. Telgi was caught and slapped heavy charges and thus this scam adds to the glory of other unscrupulous scams of India. [caption id="attachment_2026" align="alignnone" width="300"] Telgi[/caption]
