Manan Mandokhail:
A serious case of fake educational documents and record tampering has been uncovered at the Balochistan Board Office, Quetta. Investigations by the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) Quetta, under orders from the Balochistan High Court, revealed that a student fraudulently secured admission to Bolan Medical College by manipulating his academic records.
According to court order CP No. 533/2025, Saeedullah, son of El Jan, a resident of Washuk district, allegedly colluded with several Balochistan Board officials to obtain a forged marks sheet and fake degree. These manipulated documents allowed him to gain admission on merit to Bolan Medical College.
Acting on the High Court’s directives, ACE Quetta immediately formed a special investigation team, which reviewed all relevant records and recorded statements from concerned officials. The inquiry confirmed that Saeedullah’s original marks were insufficient for medical college admission. However, board officers misused their authority to issue a tampered marks sheet, falsely inflating his scores.
The investigation report established clear evidence of corruption, forgery, record tampering, and breach of trust against the involved officials. Based on these findings, the Balochistan High Court ordered formal registration of FIRs and legal action against all individuals implicated.
As a result, ACE Quetta arrested six people, including five government officials and the student involved. The arrested individuals are:
•Noor Ahmed — Additional Controller
•Manzoor Hussain — Deputy Controller
•Saeed Ahmed — Assistant
•Muhammad Aslam — Assistant Secretary
•Abdul Qayoom — Assistant
•Saeedullah, son of El Jan — Student and beneficiary
According to ACE Director General Abdul Wahid Kakar, further arrests are expected as the investigation expands. “The scope of inquiry has been widened to ensure all those involved in this fraud face the law,” he said.
