The Hamirpur court has recently extended the judicial remand of a former secretary of the Himachal Pradesh Staff Service Commission till May 17 in connection with the exam paper leak case.
Jitendra Kumar Kanwar (Himachal Administrative Services officer) was arrested on April 4. Also, the court sent 2 others, Neetu and her brother Gopal, to judicial custody till May 17.
The special investigation team of the vigilance bureau arrested Neetu and Gopal in the case on April 29. Vigilance officials stated that the siblings cleared JOA (IT) test and allegedly bought leaked question papers from Uma Azad (the main accused in the paper leak case).
Therefore, the Himachal Pradesh government has placed Uma Azad under suspension.
She was arrested red-handed with solved question papers and cash amounting to Rs 2.5 lakh, besides a laptop computer in December 2022.
After the paper leak was unearthed in December last year, the state government adjourned the functioning of HPSSC and postponed all examinations.
Later, the state government dissolved the commission.
