Noida: There is nothing very wrong about Eeco Van heading to a city hotel when the police patrol team waved down.
Strange clock – 3.30 am when night at night is on a pandemic.
But the odder is still a woman’s wallet in a van with five men.
What happened next was a series of questions by police who wanted to know, which caused the answer to avoiding, trail to the hotel in sector 71 and finally arrest of a group of 18 people, who could be involved in the leaking of the paper that was feasibility of the test center (C-TET), which was carried out by CBSE.
Times Viewexaminasi paper rackets deceive and prevent honest students and make the entire hollow system in the long run.
That such a racket is being excavated with frequency is the cause of alarm.
Such criminals deserve a tight sentence from the law.
Unintentional arrests, police said, can help explore one of the biggest test racquets in several times.
Among 18 is five C-Tet candidates as recovering acceptance cards from them.
They were in the midst of sharing the answer key when the police team stormed the hotel – around 4am on Thursday.
The police are now trying to find out whether the answer key is indeed a question asked in C-TET, which is done in several centers on Thursday.
Police said one of the gang members, who had a pen with the answer key, fled when they started looking for hotels.
Alleged racket kingpin – a lawyer from Sonipat – also in runaway.
The arrest came a few days after up-TET had to be canceled due to a question paper leak.
“Because the night at night was on, a police team deployed at the 60 sector stopped Maruti Eeco with five men in it.
It was around 3.30 in the morning.
When the car was being sought, the police found a woman’s wallet.
The people were questioned, and they revealed that It belongs to a woman who stays at a hotel in Sector 71, “said Ranvijay Singh, additional DCP, Noida.
The police team accompanied five people to the hotel and started the search.
There are 13 more people, who are then arrested.
What evokes suspicion between the police is 51 acknowledging the restored C-TET card.
Police are now trying to ensure the truth of the document.
“Apart from the 51 C-tet reception cards are scheduled today (December 30), there are three laptops and 20 cellphones.
18 people have five cars in total and RS 36,000 cash is found from them,” said the senior officer.
The question round revealed that one of the racket members, named Ravi, escaped with pen drive which allegedly contains all the answer keys.
“They have gathered at the hotel to share the answer key.
The candidates will appear in the test scheduled later on that day,” Singh said.
Each candidate is believed to have paid Rs 2.5-3 lakh for the answer key.
Even though Noida did not have a c-tet center, it was held in Gurgaon, Mathura, Moradabad and several other cities on Thursday morning.
The police are now looking for Vinay Dahiya, lawyers from Sonipat who allegedly run networks for three to four years.
The arrest of the remaining gang members is very important to know how they managed to get question papers and answer keys, police said.
The initial investigation has revealed that among those who were arrested were Bhavani Sharma, a retired CRPF Constable from Rajasthan, and Shiv Ram Singh, who was currently posted in Raipur as CRPF police.
A sub-inspector’s assistant at Delhi police, Vikas, also among those arrested, police said.
