Last week, Shambhu Prasad Singh, the former political advisor of Union Minister VK Singh was arrested for alleged fraud, cheating and forgery.

Of the four FIRs filed against him, the first is based on a complaint by VK Singh's Private Secretary Surjeet Singh, who accused Shambhu Prasad of “tarnishing the name and image of Hon’ble (Minister) by duping people… misusing his position… impersonating and cheating as staff of Hon’ble Minister” and “for taking illegal and unauthorised possession of files, documents…which are properties of the office of the Hon’ble Minister," reported The Indian Express.

The complaint further said that after having worked for six months, the MP received complaints about Prasad trying to "make illegal money". He was warned, but after some time, went back to the "nefarious activities”, which he continued even after leaving the position.
