Bilaspur: Seven persons, out of the nine
arrested in the pre-medical entrance test (PMT) question paper
leak, have been remanded to judicial custody till August 1,
while two other have been sent to an observation home for the
juveniles, as they are minors.
The nine accused, including girls, in the paper leak case
are, Chandrabhan Gendale, Deepak Gupta, Saurabh Sahu, Ananya
Bajpayee, Lav Devangan, Srushti Gupta and Anupam Gupta. The
court has also dismissed the bail pleas of these seven
accused.
Sources said that as soon as the third PMT exam was
successfully held last Sunday, police made nine arrests from
various exam centres in Bilaspur. The accused were later
presented before Takhatpur and Bilaspur courts.
Even though police have registered cases against 72
persons, they have managed to make only nine arrests so far.
However, the prime accused in the paper leak case are yet to
be arrested.
