A 26-year-old man named Angrez Singh was arrested for reportedly posing as his girlfriend to take an exam on her behalf, reports the NY Post. This incident gained viral attention after photos of the incident were circulated on the internet.

“He tried to enter the examination hall by changing his appearance,”

police spokesperson, Manoj Kumar, told Jam Press. 

Singh took a recruitment test on behalf of his girlfriend, Paramjit Kaur, at the DAV Public School in Kotkapura Punjab. Kaur had previously failed the exam, which was a crucial step in her becoming a healthcare worker. To fool the test officials, Singh shaved his facial hair, wore makeup, and dressed in women’s clothing to resemble Kaur. 

He even went as far as forging Kaur’s voter card, ID card, and Aadhaar card – a 12-digit unique identity number – to make the scheme foolproof. However, Singh’s was caught by exam officials who noticed that his face did not match Kaur’s photo on the application form.

Sadly, Singh did not pass the exam.

The fraudster was arrested. Police also accused Kaur of working with her boyfriend because he couldn’t have done it without her help, they said. The couple are now facing many charges and the police are investigating how Singh faked the documents.
