Bachcha Rai, the main accused of Merit Scam of intermediate examination in Bihar, has been sent to 14 day judicial custody. He is the Principal of Vishun Roy College of Vaishali from where toppers had appeared in the examination.
Raids are continuing to nab the absconding former Chairman of Bihar School Examination Board Lalkeshwar Prasad Singh. Patna SSP told media that so far eight persons have been arrested in connection with the inter toppers scam.
He said police have sought warrant of arrest against Lal Keshwar from the court as his complicity was getting too apparent.
His wife and former JDU MLA Usha Sinha, who allegedly helped him run the affairs of the Board, has also come under scanner following the interrogation of arrested persons.
