Sixty eight attestation and official stamps were also recovered. These stamps are of different official designations like those of SHOs, Tehsildars, Municipal Councilors etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the last five years, this gang has secured recruitment of 26 individuals in the Sikh, J&amp;K and Artillery regiments by preparing fake caste and residential proof certificates.

Names of several Non- Commissioned Officers (NCOs) posted in Ludhiana, Gwalior, Ferozpur and Bhuvneshwar have figured in the questioning of the suspects.
