Two candidates in the jail police recruitment drive set record times during the 1,600metre run, only to be disqualified later for cheating.

Ram Suresh Gantewad from Himayatnagar and Shridhar Madhukar Pallewad from Kandhar, both the places in Nanded district, appeared for the running test on Thursday morning at the railway police ground in Ghatkopar East.

Several authorities, including officials from the Pant Nagar police station, were present for supervision.

The candidates completed their gruelling run, after which an official checked their net times. Upon noticing a discrepancy, he alerted other officials from the Reserve Police and Armed Police forces.
