The Central Bureau of Investigation has detained Rakesh Ranjan, also known as Rocky, who is suspected of being the kingpin in the NEET paper leak case. He has been held in the CBI’s custody for ten days. Rocky is also related to another significant figure in this racket, Sanjeev Mukhiya, who has been involved in the scam for two decades and is currently on the run.
The arrest of Ranjan, or Rocky, could help the CBI crack open the NEET paper leak investigation. So far, the investigation agency has arrested more than a dozen people, including the head and vice-principal of a school in Hazaribagh, Jharkhand. The CBI and numerous state police agencies are probing a national scam that involves the leaking of competitive exam question papers. The CBI has so far filed six FIRs including five for three separate cases in Bihar. The probe so far indicates that the NEET paper leak may have had its origins in the Oasis School in Hazaribagh. Papers leaked from there also made their way to Bihar, a CBI official said. The NEET-UG exam is taken for admission to undergraduate medical courses.
