Mumbai, Nov 27: A Central Bureau of Investigation team from Delhi is now here to investigate the role of Institute of Banking Personnel Services (IBPS) in the leakage of question papers of Common Admission Test (CAT) for Indian Institutes of Management, CBI sources said today.
A team, headed by a Superintendent of Police (SP), arrived in Mumbai yesterday and started investigations into the leakage, the sources said.
"The team will be concentrating on the role of IBPS, which used to print the cat question paper for over a decade, and is likely to question some of the IBPS staff soon," a CBI official said.
The sources said that after CBI detected the cat paper leak during the exam when it was underway on Sunday all over the country, it has reached a conclusion that the leak perhaps occurred at the source of the printing - the IBPS.
With the CBI chief giving a clean chit to the IIM Ahmedabad, that acts as a nodal agency for the centralised examination, the focus of the investigation agency is now on IBPS, sources said.
Police sources said the CBI team from Delhi has started examining the functioning of the IBPS, which prints question papers for over 200 competitive exams, and will pin point the weak areas from where the leakage could have occurred.
"The team is in close coordination with the local CBI authorities and the local police," the sources added.
