Psychologist G V Kumar, who was arrested by the Chennai central crime branch (CCB) on April 1 in connection with the bogus ‘expert opinion’ filed by Tamil Nadu Uniformed Service Recruitment Board (TNUSRB) before the Madras high court, has approached the court seeking bail.
Kumar, who is currently lodged in the Puzhal central prison, claimed that he had nothing to do with the crime and that the authorities of the board are implicating him in the case to hide the mistake committed on their part.
Admitting the plea, Justice N Anand Venkatesh has directed the CCB to file their response by April 22 and adjourned the application.
The issue pertains to a plea moved by an eligible inservice candidate who was denied appointment as subinspector of police by the board. He alleged that answer key to a mathematical question in the exam was wrong and that he was denied half mark for the question though he answered correctly.
Based on an ‘expert opinion’ produced by the board, his plea was dismissed by the Madras high court. Later, the petitioner approached the court again claiming that the ‘expert opinion’ produced by the board was bogus as the expert who gave the opinion was a non-existent person.
Taking a serious view of the submission, the court reopened the case and censured the board for filing such a bogus report. The court also directed the board to probe the matter and book all the persons responsible for the crime.
In view of the court order, the board filed a formal complaint with CCB alleging Kumar, an independent consultant to the board, and D Murthy, a retired maths teacher, responsible for the offence.
Based on the complaint, CCB arrested Kumar and remanded him to judicial custody. Now, since the jurisdictional magistrate has dismissed his bail application, Kumar has approached the Madras high court.
Kumar has been practising as a psychologist, psychometrician, marital counsellor, behavioural and soft skills trainer since 1983 and has contributed to providing psychology questions for the TNUSRB examinations recently. Kumar worked as a psychologist at Chennai Port Trust and has been serving many leading organizations as an official counsellor for the past three decades.
