CHENNAI: A trainee IPS officer was allegedly caught trying to do a Munnabhai to better his UPSC score here on Monday. Just as Sanjay Dutt used a bluetooth-linked device to write his medical term tests in that Bollywood blockbuster Munnabhai MBBS, Safeer Karim, 27, was caught red-handed using a cellphone and wireless earphones while taking the civil services exam.
He had cleared the UPSC exam in 2015 with an All India Rank of 112, and is currently posted as trainee Assistant Superintendent of Police in Tirunelveli district.
As he was writing the general studies paper at the Presidency Girls Higher Secondary School in Egmore, sleuths from the Intelligence Bureau (IB) caught him while he was on a call with his wife Joicy Joy, who was in Hyderabad.
