NEW DELHI: The CBI has arrested the chief depot material superintendent of the Central Railways posted in Mumbai for allegedly duping more than 23 people on the pretext of providing them jobs in the railways, officials said on Thursday. The agency has taken Rajesh Ramesh Nayak into custody, they said.
It is alleged that Nayak used to promise jobs in the Central Railways and had issued fake appointment letters, letters for medical examination and letters for training among others in the name of Central Railway's DPO, Mumbai, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) said in a statement.
