A Delhi court on Monday allows the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to question three individuals held in judicial custody in connection with the alleged NEET UG paper leak case. The CBI sought permission to interrogate the accused for necessary clarifications as part of its probe. The court heard the agency’s plea before granting the request, according to reports. The three accused named by the sources are Manisha Sanjay Waghmare, Dhananjay Nivrutti Lokhande, and Shubham Madhukar Khairnar. The CBI states that the accused are among the “prime conspirators” who allegedly facilitated the leakage and dissemination of NEET UG 2026 questions in return for monetary consideration before the exam. The CBI has arrested 13 persons in the case so far. Separate reports also indicate that judicial custody for the accused has been extended until June 29, and that new witness statements have surfaced that require verification with the accused. The NEET UG examination held on May 3 was cancelled by the National Testing Agency on May 12 after allegations of a leak. A re-exam is scheduled to take place on June 21.
