The Mumbai Crime Branch is expected to arrest two more individuals, Rutuja Patil and Mayur Thackeray, in relation to the alleged leak of the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) Drug Inspector examination question paper. Six suspects were apprehended on August 26. Rutuja Patil is anticipated to face questioning over WhatsApp conversations, though she was not among the initial group of arrests.
Authorities suspect that Rutuja paid ₹50 lakh to secure the leaked questions. Her father, Amrut Patil, is under investigation as a potential key player, having allegedly paid ₹12 lakh to acquire the questions from Pravin Patil. Pravin, who runs the Kaustilya Academy, is believed to have obtained the questions from MPSC officials Vishweshwar Nakate, Abhijit Lendwe, and Gopal Marathe.
Confirmation of the leak came when Rutuja's parents, both teachers from Nandurbar, shared 77 matching questions from the actual exam with the Crime Branch. The probe is now focusing on the distribution and potential sale of the leaked questions to other candidates.
