PRAYAGRAJ: Kaushambi Police have invoked Gangsters Act against Rajiv Nayan Mishra alias Rahul Kumar Mishra, mastermind of paper leaks in various competitive exams in Uttar Pradesh, and 22 of his accomplices.
Mishra, a resident of Amaura village, had been operating an inter-state racket that leaked question papers of several competitive exams, Kaushambi superintendent of police (SP) Brijesh Kumar Srivastava said.
Mishra and his key aides had accumulated illegal wealth in the process, and police will attach their properties under Gangsters Act, the superintendent of police said.
“In Feb this year, Kaushambi Police had busted a racket involved in paper leak case in Manjhanpur, wherein gang members charged hefty amounts from students and their guardians on pretext of leaking competitive exam papers,” the superintendent of police said. Most of these racketeers, including Mishra, are currently logged in different jails.
Mishra was also the mastermind in the recent RO\ARO paper leak case that rocked Uttar Pradesh on Feb 11 this year. Manjhanpur Police in Kaushambi district had registered an FIR against the gang members. Cops had also submitted a chargesheet against all gang members. Prayagraj Police had also lodged an FIR against the racket’s kingpin and others under appropriate sections.
Police said that this same group was also involved in the paper leak of teachers’ eligibility test in 2021, following which a case under appropriate sections of law was registered with Kokhraj police station.
