Bengaluru, Apr 6: Criminal Investigation Department (CID) sleuths on Wednesday arrested two more teachers in connection with the PU II question paper leak case. The two physical education (PE) teachers — Anilkumar HK of Poornaprajna College, Sadashivanagar, and Satish Kumar of Government High School, Mathikere — have been long-time friends and, ironically, even recipients of the 'best teacher' award for Bengaluru north, from not too long ago.

awardwinnersThey are facing charges of selling the leaked question papers to students and handing over the money to Manjunath after taking a commission. The arrests were made following information given by one of the prime accused Manjunath, who is being interrogated by the CID. The accused will be produced before a court seeking police custody for questioning.

Manjunath, also a PE teacher, Obalaraju, officer on special duty to the Medical Education Minister, and Rudrappa, a PWD manager, were nabbed by the CID on Monday. The officials suspect that Manjunath got the question paper from the kingpin of the racket and had given it to Anil and Satish. The duo had reportedly sold the question papers directly to students of private colleges and collected money. Both had made about `50,000 each and given `4 lakh to Manjunath.

Anil and Satish, who knew each other for the past few years, are part of the gang involved in question paper leaks. Both came in contact with Manjunath during the training period and sports meet. They had received the chemistry question paper, which was leaked the first time, 12 hours before the exam. They had approached students of private tutorials located around their residences and had collected the names of those interested in buying the paper.

Best teachers'

A senior CID official said the arrested PE teacher Anil had received the Best Teacher Award from the state government in 2015-16 based on a recommendation from his college. The college had recommended his name after the performance of its students in the PU II exams improved. He was also close to top officials in the PUE and Public Instruction Departments.

Interestingly, he used to be seen in the department office during results giving details of the college toppers to the media. Satish also received a Best Teacher Award presented by PE Teachers' Association.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

 

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

We respect ur decision sir.

 

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

 

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

 

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
