The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) recently arrested five individuals regarding the NEET UG paper leak case. Officials conducted searches across multiple locations as the agency intensified its national probe. Consequently, the CBI detained three people from Jaipur, one from Gurugram, and one from Nashik. Moreover, authorities are questioning several other suspects in various cities to uncover more leads. This development marks a significant step in addressing alleged malpractices within the medical entrance examination system.
CBI teams seized numerous digital devices, such as laptops and mobile phones, for forensic examination. Specifically, investigators aim to trace messaging applications that might have circulated the leaked papers. Furthermore, the agency is coordinating closely with the Special Operations Group (SOG) in Rajasthan. Technical analysis remains a priority to ensure a professional and impartial investigation. Interestingly, the SOG reported that a guess paper contained nearly 120 questions that appeared in the actual test.
The arrests sparked a political slugfest between the Congress and the ruling BJP in Rajasthan. Former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot alleged that one of the accused has ties to the BJP. However, the BJP strongly denied these claims and maintained the individual holds no party position. Meanwhile, the CBI visited the National Testing Agency (NTA) headquarters to collect essential documents. They also interviewed officials involved in the examination process to understand the timeline of the alleged leak.
Q1: Who are the individuals arrested by the CBI so far?
The CBI arrested five persons: Mangilal Biwal, Vikas Biwal, and Dinesh Biwal from Jaipur; Yash Yadav from Gurugram; and Shubham Khairnar from Nashik.
Q2: What evidence did the CBI seize during the searches?
Officials seized digital devices, including mobile phones and laptops, to conduct technical forensic analysis and trace the circulation of examination papers.
Q3: How many questions were reportedly leaked in the guess paper?
The Rajasthan Police\'s SOG claimed that a circulated guess paper contained approximately 410 questions, with about 120 matching the official test.
