Srinagar: A court in Srinagar has asked the Crime Branch to initiate a probe into a complaint that the administration of Tyndale Biscoe and Mallinson School are “indulging in corruption and misappropriation.”
The orders were passed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate Srinagar after the former Estates Supervisor of Tyndale-Biscoe and Mallinson society, Rajan Sandhu along with member of Saints Paul Church, Isaac Samuel approached the court with complaint to probe the cases of “corruption and misappropriation” in the school.
The complainants state that the administration of Tyndale Biscoe and Mallinson school have resorted to ‘massive corruption and misappropriation’.
The CJM Srinagar directed the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Crime Branch to submit a fresh report by March 30 in this regard.
According to the complainants, the assets of Tyndale Biscoe and Mallinson society have been converted into personal assets and underlined that the ‘illegal conversion of society assets into personal assets’ needs a thorough investigation.
“These schools have been illegally hijacked by one single family which is deliberately trying to change the basic structure of the diocese run educational institutes, viciously turning them from an educational society into their personal business enterprises and parents, casting a wrong impression that diocese was imparting education in conflict,” the complainants said.
They alleged that Parvez Samuel Koul, Joyce Kaul, Rahul Kaul, “is related to each other, have duped the parents and more importantly government by indulging in embezzlement of funds and transferring the society assets to their own kith and kin”.
