The Economic Offences Unit of Bihar Police has ramped up its probe into the NEET-UG 2024 question paper leak, securing reference papers for comparison with items recovered during a raid. Sources revealed that narco analysis and brain mapping tests may be conducted on the accused to glean more information.

The investigation may also see the involvement of the Enforcement Directorate, focusing on potential money laundering linked to the alleged irregularities in the NEET exam, organized by the National Testing Agency in May. Senior officials and the Union Education Ministry discussed the developments in a meeting held in Delhi.

The police have detained six individuals from Jharkhand's Deoghar district, adding to the 13 who were arrested last month, including the primary suspect Sikandar Yadavendu. The Deputy Chief Minister has proposed a CBI probe into these issues, prompting calls for further scrutiny.
