Sarup Lal had been evading arrest by frequently changing his locations but was finally arrested from Pathankot in Punjab, a police officer said. After a complaint was lodged by the victims, a preliminary verification was initiated by the crime branch, Jammu and the allegations were prima facie substantiated, leading to registration of a criminal case. During investigation, authentication of appointment and joining letters from the concerned MES department was sought and they were found to be fabricated, they added.
