Probe Showed Screenshot Of Leaked Question Paper Was A Doctored Doc Circulated By A Student To Make Some Money
NEW DELHI: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has closed its probe into the suspected leak of the UGC-NET paper last year after being unable to find any evidence to suggest this, agency officials said on Thursday, adding that a young student had leaked a fake question paper to make money.
The leak set off a chain of events that resulted in the exam being cancelled over suspicion that it had been leaked on the darknet and the paper was available over Telegram, and resulted in the federal agency's investigation.
The exam, originally scheduled for June 18 last year, was finally conducted between August 26 and September 5.
