Bengaluru: The cybercrime police have registered a case against unknown persons for allegedly including names of bogus voters on the electoral rolls of several constituencies in the city by forging the approval of election officials.

The inclusion, which was reportedly done on January 22, came to light on April 18 when R. Munilakshmi, returning officer (RO) for the Shanthinagar Assembly constituency, was revising the approved list. Ms. Munilakshmi is in charge of enrolling voters in the revised list and is authorised to approve them in the constituency which has 197 polling booths.

“Someone illegally included the names in the approved list by forging the consent,” she has said in her complaint.

Election commission officials have deleted nearly 300 such entries.
