PATNA: In a significant breakthrough in the NEET paper leak case, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested Rakesh Ranjan alias Rocky, the alleged mastermind behind the scam, in Kanti Factory Road, Patna, late Wednesday night. On Thursday, he was produced in the special CBI court that remanded him in 10-day custody of the probe agency.
Rocky, a resident of Nalanda district, is accused of obtaining the leaked NEET question paper, solving it, and circulating the answers to MBBS aspirants. He allegedly arranged for solvers, including MBBS students from Patna and Ranchi, to assist in the cheating racket. He was found to be physically managing the operations of the paper solver gang. The CBI had been tracking Rocky’s movements for several days before making the arrest.
“The central agency raided multiple locations in Patna and Kolkata. The crucial lead came when investigators traced Rocky through the IP address associated with emails sent from his wife’s email account. Suspicions arose about Rocky’s involvement in the paper leak due to his alleged relation to Sanjeev Mukhia, believed to be the kingpin of several paper leak cases. Mukhia is still at large.
