However, in 2012, Dudhgaonkar changed the entries with the help of the revenue staff, mainly talathi Kadam, and forged the record in 2012 to show the land to have been purchased by him.Gadekar said that while investigations in the case were in progress, Kadam approached the Parbhani sessions court seeking anticipatory bail. The court rejected his bail plea. He then approached the high court, which also rejected his application.The police arrested Kadam on October 12. He was in police custody till Monday and his remand has been extended till October 17.Kadam's arrest led to the arrest of Dudhgaonkar on Monday.
