Under Secretary under question along with 3 others

So far in the investigation, it has been established that Bihar is somehow related to the paper leak. Chennai is connected to some of the conspiracy’s links as well. In this case, the police had taken into custody over two dozen people, but the investigation is still ongoing. Under such circumstances, the Jharkhand Assembly Under Secretary Mohammad Shamim and his two sons, will be detained in connection with the paper leak.

The police team will make an effort to persuade Muhammad Shamim to divulge the connections between the various elements of the paper leak case. Based on the information obtained, Ranchi Police has also requested permission from the court to place Mohammad Shamim and his two sons under remand. When the court gives its approval, Mohammad Shamim will be put under question.

Speculations of Bihar officials to be involved in the leak

It is believed that a large number of Bihar government officials are connected to the question paper leak case. Candidate Pawan Kumar was sent by Under Secretary of the Jharkhand Assembly Mohd. Shamim to Patna on the evening of January 25. There, the people in attendance gave him the question paper and forced him to study. After studying all day and all night, he was dispatched from Patna on the morning of January 27. Pawan went straight to the Dhanbad centre from there to take the test. This has been discovered during the Ranchi Police SIT’s investigation.

Additionally, SIT has discovered proof that Candidate Pawan gave the Under Secretary two blank checks. In this case, SIT is enlisting the assistance of Technical Cell. The identity of the owner of the mobile number Pawan had spoken from is being investigated.

WhatsApp messages were also found in relation to the leak

Mohamed Shamim, the Under Secretary, and his two sons’ confiscated cell phones were examined by SIT. The Under Secretary had gotten in touch with a number of candidates, including a girl from Ranchi, according to information the SIT gathered from the mobile investigation. Via WhatsApp chat, the girl and the Under Secretary had a discussion. It stated that he would need to travel to Patna in order to read the exam.

The girl, however, chose not to travel to Patna because the exam scheduled for February 4 was cancelled. In addition, via a WhatsApp chat, the Under Secretary had discussed the question paper with his two sons. In the process of looking into the mobile devices, the SIT discovered numerous numbers, which they are currently looking into.
