Madurai: The chief executive officer (CEO) of a city-based academy, which helps students get admission in educational institutions abroad, and three others were booked on charges of cheating a candidate who was enrolled in a medical institute in Ukraine without required approval, after collecting hefty money on the promise of getting him admission in an approved institute.
M Barathimohan, CEO of Nest Abroad Studies Academy in Kalavasal, a native of Cumbum in Theni district was booked along with his assistant Damodaran and two others - D Thirulogasundar from Ramanathapuram and S Harisudan from Udumalpet – who are running a hostel in Ukraine.
The city crime branch police booked them on Monday on charges of forgery and cheating based on a complaint from T Seenivasan, 53, from Melur. In his complaint, he stated that he had approached Barathimohan in 2016 for his son S Senthamizhdasan. In various instalments, he had paid Rs 21.50 lakh towards various charges including passport, institution and hostel fees. While he completed three years of education, they came to know that the institution is not approved by the Medical Council of India.
When he approached Barathimohan last year, he said that he can transfer his son to an approved institute and demanded more money. Although he paid it, the transfer did not happen. Two more candidates from Tamil Nadu P Vignesh and R Indrajith were also cheated by him. When the complainant questioned, the accused, cancelled the students’ visas without their knowledge, leaving them in the lurch.
The complainant approached the ministry of external affairs and paid a fee for visa cancellation to enable the students to return to India. Seenivasan had petitioned the Madurai city police commissioner S Davidson Devasirvatham and based on his instruction a case was registered by the sub-inspector of city crime branch P Kasirajan.
