Man Sentenced for Fake Currency, May Soon Be Released
A man named Jabbar Sheikh was caught with fake money and has been sentenced to nine years in jail.
He was using fake 500 and 1,000 rupee notes.
The police arrested him and his friend in 2016, and the fake money was worth a lot.
At first, he said he wasn't guilty, but then he changed his mind and admitted it.
Because he was in jail since 2016, he may be released soon, since the time in jail counts toward his sentence.
The court also gave him a fine.
Jabbar Sheikh was sentenced to nine years in prison for dealing fake currency.
He was arrested in October 2016 with counterfeit notes of 500 and 1,000 denominations.
The court declared him guilty under sections 489B and 489C of the IPC.
