PANJIM: After Association of Christian Backward Classes secretary Andrew D’Cunha, it is now Anthony D’Souza, a Panjim resident, who is also facing criminal charges for allegedly issuing fake samaj certificates under the banner of Association of Christian Backward Classes.
Panjim Police on Friday booked D’Souza for cheating under section 420 of the Indian Penal Code.
Inacio Pereira, who was the complainant against D’Cunha, had last month also filed case against D’Souza, for the offence.
Pereira has said that information received from the Registrar of Societies revealed that D’Souza, who claims to be president of the Association of Christian Backward Classes, is not even a member of the association. Also the Association of Christian Backward Classes stands de-registered with the government.
Pereira alleged that D’Souza has been issuing certificates under the name of the association which are widely used for various government purposes. Earlier, Vasco police registered FIR under section 420 of IPC against D’Cunha.
