Please Guide me in following issue
Sir I have a query regarding the responsibility of a Chartered Accountant in following issue.

Matter:-
If a CA issue 5 certificates having different firm name to 3 persons for the purpose of opening an Bank Account. In support of their ID proof CA has taken photocopy of PAN card as well as verified the PAN No. on the website of Income Tax. CA has verified original copy of CERTIFICATE OF "DISTRICT INDUSTRIES CENTER" and taken the photocopy of that for record purpose. I want to clarify that the address of all the firm is same.

Now, If after opening a Bank a/c if the party commits fraud then whether CA can be held responsible for forgery or issue of Wrong certificates?

I want to mention that on asking by CA regarding same address the party has given explanation that the earlier firms could not be continued due to some difficulty so we are starting a new Firm.

Can CA be arrested for the reason of issue of just certificates?
