Income Tax JC promotes himself - lands up in jail
HERE is the strange case of an Income Tax Joint Commissioner counterfeiting a promotion order and appointing himself as Additional Commissioner - Finally he landed up in jail.
Roshan joined the IRS as Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax in 1990 and was promoted as Joint Commissioner in 2001. In 2007, he claimed that he was promoted as Additional Commissioner and he asked his office to get 4 rubber stamps with his name and designated as Additional Commissioner.
CBI investigations revealed that he was not considered for promotion and was never promoted as Additional Commissioner. The CBI filed a charge-sheet in 2012 and now the CBI Court has sentenced him to undergo three Years Rigorous Imprisonment with fine of Rs.20,000/-
