The group of eight had created fake survey numbers for non-existent lands at Gollapudi, Ramavarappadu and Tadepalli and sold them to others to make easy money.
They created fake stamp papers by forging signatures of the Collector and prepared settlement pattas and receipts for fake land cess. Each member of the group played different roles such as landlords, lawyer, document writer, fake stamps and Aadhaar cards to carry out the crime.
