New Delhi, Nov 25: CBI today ruled out possibility of involvement of any faculty member of the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) in the leakage of CAT question paper but hinted at "something wrong" with the press that printed it.
"Something wrong must have happened in the printing press which we are scrutinising," CBI Director P C Sharma told reporters on the sidelines of a conference on fake currency notes and fake government stamps here.
He, however, ruled out the possibility of faculty members of the IIM being involved in the leakage, which led to the cancellation of the examination on Sunday last.
Asked whether the agency had received any communication from the Finance Ministry which has decided to hand over the probe to CBI on the multi-crore fake stamp paper scam, Sharma said, "We have received something", but refused to elaborate. He made it clear that the agency will take up investigation "as and when the state government reports it to the agency".
