The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) Kashmir of Crime Branch Jammu and Kashmir has filed a chargesheet against Ghulam Hassan Dar for impersonating a CID officer and cheating people of lakhs of rupees by promising government jobs. The chargesheet was submitted before the court of Sub-Judge Srinagar under FIR No. 24/2023, registered under Sections 420 and 468 IPC.

Dar allegedly posed as a CID officer posted in Delhi and promised to transfer a Railway Department employee from Uttarakhand to Srinagar and secure a Nursing Orderly appointment in the Health Department. He provided fake appointment orders and a forged deputation letter. The chargesheet has been filed in absentia under Section 512 CrPC as Dar is absconding.
SSP EOW Kashmir has advised the public to verify credentials of individuals claiming official connections and to report fraudulent activity to the EOW.
All four outlets report the same facts from the EOW statement wire-copy style: the chargesheet against Ghulam Hassan Dar for impersonating a CID officer and cheating people of lakhs of rupees through fake job promises. Greaterkashmir.com and risingkashmir.com include the AI-generated image note, but every source leads identically with the chargesheet filing and the accused’s absconding status. Kashmir Life adds the full parentage and residence details of Dar. None of the sources carry any government-critical, pro-government, or sensationalist framing, the coverage is uniform straight reporting of an agency-issued statement. The only real question is whether the court will proceed with an in absentia trial or the accused will be apprehended first. The EOW has already concluded the investigation as proved, leaving the matter for judicial determination.
