This was reportedly the first time the police used AI to check salaries, analyzing data for about 2,000 staff.
Officials shared that these tools helped spot irregularities that had slipped through before because of frequent staff changes and payroll tweaks.
The accused have now been booked under forgery and cheating charges and sent to judicial custody.
