CBI busts banking recruitment racket, arrests four accused
The agency registered the case based on a complaint filed by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS), following which searches were carried out and the accused persons were arrested
Mumbai, October 8, 2026 - The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has successfully dismantled a vast impersonation and cheating network spanning Delhi, Bihar, Haryana, and West Bengal. The operation led to the arrest of four individuals, including a CGST inspector, marking a significant breakthrough in the ongoing fight against fraudulent activities within India's banking sector.
The CBI, following a complaint filed by the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS), conducted simultaneous raids across multiple states. These coordinated efforts resulted in the apprehension of individuals who had deceitfully posed as candidates, infiltrating critical stages of the selection process, including written exams and interviews.
This illicit activity not only compromised the integrity of public examinations but also deprived deserving candidates of their rightful opportunities. The CBI's investigation remains active, with additional details expected to emerge as the case unfolds.
