The TET paper leak, which surfaced barely 24 hours before the state-wide examination scheduled on June 28, triggered a major controversy across Maharashtra. The case first came to light on June 27, when the Kongaon Police in Bhiwandi unearthed the racket and arrested three suspects during an operation conducted under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone II) Pawan Bansode.

Bhiwandi: In a significant development in the Maharashtra Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) paper leak case, fugitive accused Sonu Diwakar 35 Agara Uttar Pardesh surrendered before the Bhiwandi court on Monday, taking the total number of arrests in the case to 15. Following his surrender, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) took him into custody for interrogation, hoping his questioning will help unravel crucial links in the paper leak syndicate, particularly the movement of the leaked question papers and the financial transactions behind the conspiracy.

The TET paper leak, which surfaced barely 24 hours before the state-wide examination scheduled on June 28, triggered a major controversy across Maharashtra. The case first came to light on June 27, when the Kongaon Police in Bhiwandi unearthed the racket and arrested three suspects during an operation conducted under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone II) Pawan Bansode. As the investigation expanded, the SIT carried out raids across several states, leading to multiple arrests linked to the organised examination fraud.

With Diwakar's surrender, the number of arrested accused has now reached 15. Among those already in police custody are the alleged mastermind Bijendra Gupta and Inderjit Singh alias Piku, while Suman Kumari Gupta, Naresh Kumar, Sanjay Kumar Sharma, Mithun Kumar and several others have been remanded to judicial custody.
