The EoU in its report had noted that question papers reached a gang before the examinations. It had registered an FIR on March 16 under various sections of IPC and formed a special team that arrested 266 people.
Investigations by the EOU in the question paper leak cases of TRE-3, Bihar constable recruitment examination and NEET-UG have revealed that members of the infamous Sanjeev Mukhiya gang were connected, an official said.
“It has been found that Sanjeev Mukhiya’s gang is spread across Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan. The gang was also behind paper leaks in the Haryana veterinary doctor recruitment exam, Haryana English teachers’ recruitment exam and some recruitment exams conducted in UP,” he said.
Mukhiya, identified as the mastermind in the NEET-UG paper leak case, was posted as a technical assistant at a government college in Bihar’s Nalanda district. The CBI, which has taken over the investigation in the NEET-UG case, is searching for him, officials said.
Mukhiya’s name was taken by all those arrested in the paper leak case, they said.
The Mukhiya gang and another such gang helmed by Ravi Atri, who was earlier arrested in paper leaks of some previous recruitment exams, are believed to be connected, they added.
