The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today took into custody Ehsan Ul Haq, the principal of Oasis School and NTA's city coordinator for Hazaribag, after a prolonged investigation and interrogation lasting about seven hours in connection with the NEET paper leak case.
The CBI team is questioning the principal in detail about the case at the time of filing this report.
According to sources, after a lengthy interrogation of Oasis School Principal Ehsan Ul Haq, the CBI team took him with them.
The interrogation lasted for about seven hours at the school.
Throughout the day, the CBI team interrogated school officials and SBI branch officials.
At around 5:17 pm, the team left the school with the principal and kept him in a guest house.
The CBI team questioned four invigilators present at the centre on the day of the examination at Oasis School, two observers from NTA, two deputy superintendents, and the principal of the school.
Additionally, the interrogation was conducted at the branch office of the State Bank of India. Employees of the Blue Dart office were also questioned until 1:00 am last night, and today, significant information was obtained from them.
According to the received information, the CBI has also seized many electronic devices during the investigation.
Earlier on June 22, a five-member investigation team from Bihar had questioned authorities at Oasis School.
Notably, four centres were set up in Hazaribag for the NEET exam, one of which had a boy who topped the exam.
The investigation team's visit to Hazaribagh's Oasis School was prompted by the discovery that the serial number of a burnt question paper booklet matched one from Oasis School.
However, the school's principal had denied any irregularities on the part of the school.
The principal asserted that all the rules were followed, and the question paper had not leaked from the school.
He mentioned that the envelope of the question paper, which was alleged to have been leaked, had been tampered with very carefully.
