CBI takes NEET-UG 2024 question paper leak kingpin Sanjeev Mukhiya on four-day remand

PATNA: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday took Sanjeev Kumar Singh , alias Sanjeev Mukhiya, on a four-day remand for interrogation in connection with the NEET-UG 2024 question paper leak case. Mukhiya, the alleged mastermind behind several question paper leak rackets, was arrested from Patna last Friday. CBI special judge Sunil Kumar-2 granted the four-day remand after a petition was filed seeking his custody for interrogation in the undergraduate medical entrance exam case. Although the CBI had requested a seven-day remand, the court granted only four. Mukhiya, a native of Bihars Nalanda district, is believed to be at the centre of an inter-state solver gang involved in leaking question papers of various national-level exams. We hope to get substantial clue in the medical entrance exam question paper leak case, said an investigating officer on condition of anonymity. During an earlier interrogation by Bihar Polices Economic Offences Unit (EOU), Mukhiya reportedly claimed that he had helped several politicians, doctors and government officers by securing medical college seats for their children. He also confessed to maintaining connections with teachers at private coaching institutes, who would send candidates to him. He disclosed that the leaks were carried out in collusion with certain printing press employees. As soon as his men would inform him about question of a particular examination being printed in a press, he would start his work and contact them, the officer said. Mukhiya would allegedly offer hefty bribes to gain access to the papers. NTA initiates action against Telegram, Instagram channels claiming NEET-UG question paper leak Once the question papers were dispatched from the press, his men coordinated with carrier agents. The examination centre authorities were reportedly aware of only two locks on the boxes carrying the question papers, while Mukhiya had access to a third hidden lock. He would open the boxes, make xerox copies of the papers, reseal them carefully, and send them to the examination centres without raising suspicion. The xeroxed question papers were solved by his solver teams and passed on to the candidates before the exams. For the NEET-UG examination, the gang charged between Rs 40 to 50 lakh per candidate. Mukhiya claimed to have strong connections in examination rackets operating in Dehradun, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Kolkata, Gurugram, Noida and Gandhinagar. We used to take help of each other in our work, an investigating officer quoted him as saying. Revealing his personal motivation, Mukhiya reportedly told interrogators that he entered the question paper leak business to accumulate enough money to make his wife an MLA and eventually an MP. He said he had expanded his network to states including Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Delhi, Punjab and West Bengal. Additional Director General (ADG) of EOU, Naiyar Hasnain Khan, said information had been sought regarding the cases registered against Mukhiya in other states. We have shared relevant information to police officers of different states where Mukhiya has been links, Khan said. The ADG clarified that Mukhiya was arrested from an apartment near Saguna Mor under Danapur police limits in connection with the Bihar constable and teachers recruitment exam leak cases being probed by the states investigating agency. Mukhiya also confessed during interrogation that his son, Dr Shiv Prakash, and his associate, Rocky, were active members of the gang. He admitted to his involvement in leaks of question papers of NEET, BPSC, and constable recruitment exams in both Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.

`Builder-banks nexus`: SC directs CBI to register inquiries against developers

Supreme Court orders CBI probe into Supertech builder projects, cites builder-bank nexus

NEW DELHI: T he Supreme Court on Tuesday directed the CBI to register a preliminary enquiry and investigate the nexus between Supertech, a real estate developer , and eight other banks over delays in project completion and forcing homebuyers to pay EMIs. The top court ordered that the Central Bureau of Investigation will probe the incomplete projects of the realty major Supertech Limited in the NCR including Noida, Greater Noida, and Gurugram where irregularities have been found. The court observed that there appeared to be an unholy nexus between these eight banks and developers involved in these projects. Taking into account an affidavit filed by the CBI in the case, a two-judge bench comprising Justice Surya Kant and Justice N. Kotiswar Singh directed the Directors General of Police (DGPs) of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to provide a list of Deputy Superintendents of Police (DSPs), inspectors, and constables to the agency, enabling it to form a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the alleged nexus and irregularities involving Supertech and the banks. The court instructed that the CBI investigate the matter thoroughly and dig deeper to uncover the root of the irregularities. Further, the court ordered the CEOs of the Greater Noida Authority, Noida Authority, and the Secretary of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), as well as officials from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), to nominate one senior-most officer from their respective organizations within a week to assist the SIT in the investigation. The Supreme Court issued this order for a detailed CBI probe after hearing a batch of petitions filed by several homebuyers. Reportedly, around 1,000 petitioners had approached the apex court, alleging that they were being illegally forced by banks to pay EMIs despite not receiving possession of their flats. Taking note of these concerns, the court directed the CBI to conduct a comprehensive investigation. The petitioners who had booked flats in the NCR region demanded a thorough probe into Supertechs projects and the role of various banks that had loaned over 5,000 crore under the subvention scheme for its multiple housing developments. According to the court order, the Supreme Court bench will monitor the status of the CBI investigation on a monthly basis. It is important to note that a subvention scheme operates by having banks disburse the sanctioned loan amount directly to the builders account. During this period, the builder is required to pay the EMIs on the sanctioned loan until the flats are handed over to the homebuyers. However, the builder eventually began defaulting on loan payments, and at the same time, banks started demanding EMIs from the homebuyers, as per the tripartite agreement.

NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday raided multiple premises in Delhi-NCR as part of its money laundering investigation against coaching institute FIITJEE, which recently shut its centres abruptly, leaving about 12,000 students in the lurch, officials said.

The money laundering case stems from FIRs filed by Noida and Delhi Police on the complaints of these parents.

The action is being undertaken under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The case stems from FIRs filed by Noida and Delhi Police on the complaints of some parents, who said in January that the FIITJEE centres suddenly shut, leaving their children in the lurch, the officials said. The parents said they deposited lakhs of rupees as fee but they got no service or refund, they added. FIITJEE provides coaching for competitive exams to engineering aspirants and has 73 centres across the country. Coaching Biz Crisis: FIITJEE shuts down centres across multiple states?

Haryana RERA sends notice to Sky Palazzo builders over suspected fraud

GURUGRAM: The Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority (HRERA) has issued a notice to the directors and officials of Sky Palazzo, a housing project being built by Fidatocity Homes Private Limited in Sector 88 B of Gurugram, after receiving a complaint suggesting a likely case of fraud. In a notice dated April 21, HRERA directed the company to submit its response before the hearing scheduled for April 28. The complaint, filed by Advocate Subhash Solanki on behalf of several homebuyers, raises serious concerns about the legitimacy of the project. Solanki said that Sky Palazzo is being developed on 10.84 acres of land in Harsaru village, Sector 88 B. This land is owned by Baljeet Yadav, Dinesh Yadav, Mahesh, Mahipal, and Dushyant Yadav, who had entered into a development agreement with Fidatocity Homes, he said. According to Solanki, the RERA registration document lists the website TrinityInfratech.in, naming Mukund Mittal and Riddhi Mittal as founders of Trinity Infratech, the company shown as leading the Sky Palazzo Residences project. However, after the complaint was filed, both names and their photos were removed from the website. This sudden removal raises serious doubts, Solanki said, adding that Mukund Mittal is the son of Madhur Mittal, who has faced serious criminal allegations in the past. Solanki also pointed out that similar allegations have been reported earlier to the Director of Town and Country Planning (DTCP), Haryana, via the CM Window grievance portal. Madhur Mittal was allegedly blacklisted by DTCP in 2019 and barred from obtaining new licences due to controversies surrounding his previous projects. Solanki further claimed that the application to HRERA for the Sky Palazzo was submitted through Amit Kumar Sharma and Anil Sharma, both residents of Agra, the same city where Madhur Mittal is from. They have been named in the complaint as frontmen acting on behalf of Madhur Mittal, he said. The complaint filed with both HRERA and the CM Window calls for the cancellation of the Sky Palazzo project to prevent further harm to potential homebuyers. This is a matter of public interest and we want to ensure no one else is defrauded, he said.

Haryana police arrest man accused of sexually assaulting air hostess in Gurugram hospital ICU

CHANDIGARH: Haryana Police arrested a 25-year-old Bihar man who allegedly sexually assaulted a 46-year-old air hostess, while she was on a ventilator support in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Medanta Hospital in Gurugram. The accused, Deepak, is a native of Badhauli village in Muzaffarpur district in Bihar and was working as a technician in Medanta Hospital for the last five months. He was identified and arrested after examining the footage from 800 CCTV cameras, interrogating the hospital staff and investigating various facts. In the preliminary interrogation the alleged accused told the police that he is unmarried and addicted to watching porn videos. After doing B.Sc OTT (Bachelor of Science in Operation Theatre Technology) from SGT University, he joined Medanta Hospital. The 46-year-old air hostess had said that two nurses were present in the room but did nothing to stop the incident. On April 5, she was admitted to the hospital and was later discharged on April 13 (Sunday). After being discharged from the hospital, the air hostess told her husband about the incident and lodged a complaint with the police. A case was registered under section 64 (rape), 68 (sexual intercourse by a person in authority) of the BNS at Sadar Police station. In her complaint, she stated that on April 6, she was on a ventilator when some hospital staff sexually assaulted her. It is learnt that she was admitted to the Ayushman Hospital after a near-drowning at the five-star hotel where she was staying on the morning of April 5. Later that night she was shifted to Medanta, where she was placed on ventilator support. The victim had stated she was unable to defend herself due to her compromised physical condition and claimed that two nurses witnessed the incident but failed to intervene. On Thursday, Gurugram Police Commissioner, Vikas Kumar Arora, had formed a special investigation team (SIT) led by Deputy Commissioner of Police (Headquarters) Dr Arpit Jain, and the SIT arrested the accused today.

Robert Vadra appears before ED on third day in connection with Haryana land deal case

NEW DELHI: Robert Vadra, the businessman brother-in-law of Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, appeared before the ED on the third straight day on Thursday for questioning in a money laundering case linked to alleged irregularities in a 2008 Haryana land deal case. The 56-year-old has been questioned for over ten hours in the last two days as part of the investigation and the recording of his statement process under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) will continue Thursday, officials said. He reached the ED office in central Delhi shortly after 11 am accompanied by his wife Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is MP from Wayanad. Vadra had called the ED action borne out of political vendetta against him and his family, and said that while he has always cooperated with the agency and furnished thousands of pages of documents, he needed a closure in these cases which are almost 20 years old. The probe against Vadra is linked to a land deal in Haryana's Manesar-Shikohpur (now sector 83) in Gurugram. The deal of February 2008 was done by a company named Skylight Hospitality Pvt Ltd, where Vadra was a director earlier, as it purchased a 3.5 acre of land in Shikohpur from Onkareshwar Properties at a price of Rs 7.5 crore. A Congress government led by Bhupinder Singh Hooda was in power at that time. Four years later, in September 2012, the company sold the land to realty major DLF for Rs 58 crore. The land deal got embroiled in controversy in October 2012 after IAS officer Ashok Khemka, then posted as the director general of Land Consolidation and Land Records-cum-Inspector-General of Registration of Haryana, cancelled the mutation of this categorising the transaction as violative of state consolidation Act and some related procedures. The BJP, which was in opposition then, had termed the case an instance of corruption in land deals and that of epotism, hinting at Vadra's kinship with the first family of the Congress party. Haryana Police had filed an FIR to probe this deal in 2018. Vadra has been questioned multiple times by the federal probe agency in two different money laundering cases earlier. Sources told PTI that the ED will soon file chargesheets in all these three cases being investigated against Vadra.

Only one operational old age home in Haryana, Human Rights Commission pulls up authorities over delays

CHANDIGARH: There is only one operational old-age home in Haryana as per the status report given to the Haryana Human Rights Commission (HHRC) by the authorities. The commission has raised serious concerns over the sluggish pace of old-age home construction across the state. In a review conducted in compliance with its earlier order dated January 31 the commission noted that only one old age home in Rewari district is currently operational, nearly two years after its inauguration on January 6, 2023. As per the status report received on April 1, this year the land has not yet been identified for old age homes in Jhajjar, Palwal, Panipat, Rohtak, and Sirsa districts. Meanwhile, districts like Gurugram, Kaithal, CharkhiDadri, Mahendragarh, and Nuh have earmarked land and have initiated the construction process. Construction remains pending in Faridabad, Fatehabad, Hisar, Jind, Kurukshetra, Sonipat, and Yamunanagar due to a lack of planning approvals. However, work is ongoing in Karnal under the Smart City Project and in Panchkula under the supervision of the Mata Mansa Devi Shrine Board. During a virtual inspection of the Rewari old age home, the commission found that only 12 senior citizens (9 men and 3 women) were residing in a facility built to house 170 residents. Several hygiene issues were observed, including unclean washrooms, poor kitchen conditions, and insufficient staff only one safaisewak was deployed, which was deemed inadequate for maintaining cleanliness. A full commission bench comprising Chairperson Justice (Retd) Lalit Batra, Judicial Member Kuldip Jain, and Member Deep Bhatia, invoked Section 19 of the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, which mandates at least one Old Age Home in every district. The Commission reaffirmed that ensuring dignity and security for the elderly is a constitutional and moral obligation of the state. To expedite progress, the commission has directed the following senior officials to personally monitor and accelerate the construction of old age homes: Additional Chief Secretary, Department of Social Justice and Empowerment, Chief Administrator, HSVP, Panchkula, Director, Development and Panchayats Department and Director, Town and Country Planning Department. According to Dr Puneet Arora spokesman of the commission and protocol officer, the commission has sought a detailed action taken report from the concerned departments by July 29 this year.
