Other allegations include forgery under Section 345 and uttering a fake document under Section 353 of the Penal Code.
The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has lately taken action against those who possess bogus academic qualifications.
In March, the commission wrote to the Head of Public Service and all accounting officials in the public service, asking them not to provide benefits to resigning government servants who had faked academic papers and professional certifications.
