Rahul Mavi (20), Tapish (24), Sunny(22), Robin Kumar Nain (24), Sohanpal (22) and Tapender (26) were apprehended yesterday from inside the examination centre -- Shri Tula Ram Public School, Aman Vihar, Rohini after a tip off was received that organised cheating was planned during the test, police said today
"These people were carrying mobile phones inside the examination hall. They were found solving the test paper with the help of answer keys sent to them through SMS on their phones. Every phone had answer keys to all four sets of question papers in the form of SMSes," said Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Ravindra Yadav.

The candidates were allegedly charged at least Rs 3 lakh each by the rackeeters.
Police have recovered six mobile phones, one hand written answer key, admit cards bearing names and other details of the six candidates with their respective question papers and answer sheets.
During interrogation, it came to light that the candidates came in contact with different sources who promised to provide them answer keys of the question paper for the recruitment of constable in Railway Protection Force, said Yadav.

They assured the prospective candidates that answer keys of all four sets of question paper will be provided before the commencement of the examination through SMS. For this, the minimum charge was Rs three lakh, he said.

"Interestingly, messages found in the mobiles of those arrested were sent from multiple sources and it shows that this is a widespread racket which is likely to have multiple sources of leakage of papers and railways should look into the matter," said Yadav.
"We will also be writing a letter to the Railways in this matter. In order to identify the source behind the organised cheating, racket help of technical surveillance will be taken," he added.
