Those convicted included retd Lt Colonel Satya Pal Sharma, the then commander works engineer (CWE); retd Lt Colonel K.S. Saini, the then Garrison Engineer (West), Allahabad; retd Colonel YK Uppal, Military Engineering Services, Allahabad (Admn, Command Station, Srinagar); the then Garrison Engineer (West), Allahabad; Virendra Kumar Jain, the then Garrison Engineer (East), Allahabad; Major SS Thakkar, then Garrison Engineer (Air Force), Bamrauli, Allahabad as well as Ashok Kumar Deora, Anil Kumar Deora and Pawan Kumar Deora, the proprietors/partners of different fictitious firms.
