Based on reliable information, police led by DSP R Prakash, CCS Inspector Kiran, Town SIs Raheem, Sanjeev and others conducted checking at Jagtial new bus stand area on Sunday morning and found five persons moving under suspicious circumstances. On questioning, they confessed to the crime of circulating fake currency notes. They also informed that they came to Jagtial to exchange counterfeit currency notes brought from Hyderabad.
