Delhi's Rouse Avenue court on Friday granted🐻 bail to a person named Gangadha𒁏r Gunde who was wrongly arrested by the CBI in the NEET paper leak case.
The CBI has made 11 arr🔥ests so far in this case and registered six FIRs.
The CBI had mistakenly arrested Gangadhar Gunde as they aimed to anot🐈her person with a similar name.
CBI had initially lodged the case against🦄 the actual accuไsed N Gangadhar Appa.
Appa has been arrested in Bengalur𒈔u in L🃏atur related case.
Counsel for wrongly arrested accused Gangadhar Gunde, Kailash More ꦗtold ANI, "Gangadhar Gunde was arrested only on the ground of similarity of name to the original accused Gangadhar... However, the bail has been granted. My argument was ꦬthat the accused who was arrested was not the original accused in the NEET scam. Only his name is similar to the original accused."
The 🐎CBI on Thursday arrested one of the alleged kingpins in the NEET-UG paper leak case who was on the run ever since the crackdown on irregularities in the entrance exam began, officials said.
Rockey alias Rakesh Ranjan, 🌸who hails from Nalanda🐼, and is said to be a relative of mastermind Sanjeev Mukhia, was nabbed by the agency from outskirts of Patna, they said.
The CBI had been t⛎railing him since the case came to the aꦺgency. His run came to an end Thursday morning when he was arrested by the agency, they said.
The agency produced him before a special court in Patna which has remanded him to 10 days of CBI custody, they said.
The CBI conducted searches at 🎃three locations in Patna and nearby areas and one in Kolkata after his arrest, they said.
