The CBI has arrested BSF Commandant (Medical) Karnail Singh for allegedly using touts to get his son the question paper of the police sub-inspectors recruitment examination conducted by the Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB), officials said on Wednesday.
The Border Security Force (BSF) official was taken into custody on Tuesday and he will be produced before the special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court in Jammu later in the day, they said.
During the probe, the agency had found that Singh allegedly entered into a conspiracy with touts, and as part of it, arranged a leaked question paper for his son through one of them.
The question paper was allegedly provided to him early in the morning on the day of the examination, March 27, at a house in Gangyal in Jammu.
