The youth, identified as Prince, was caught by the examiner during the checking process. On learning about the incident, principal-cum-centre superintendent Neeraj Kumar informed the Tandwa police, which took the youth into custody.

According to the centre superintendent, he doubted Prince Kumar due to his suspicious behaviour and asked for his credentials, which he failed to provide. During interrogation, Prince Kumar revealed that his friend Rohit Kumar had gone to the Triveni Sangam. Hence, he stepped to help him in the English paper.
