Four people, including two school teachers, have been detained for supplying a cheat sheet containing the answers to an examinee during the recruitment test of the Department of Social Services in Thakurgaon on Friday.
The incident occurred at the Thakurgaon Government Girls High School centre. The exam committee handed over the culprits to police for further action.
According to Shaharia Nazir, the Executive Magistrate in charge of the exam center, office assistants Md Jahirul and Deepti Rani were caught red-handed while handing a sheet containing the answers to the exam questions to examinee Shafikul Islam.
“Teachers Kabir Iqbal and Ahmed Jibril didn’t take any actions against either the examinee or the peons. Instead, Iqbal tore the answer copy apart and threw it out of the window when he got it. Jibril, despite being the centre's invigilator, let it go,” said Nazir.
Atiqur Rahman, Investigation Officer (IO) of Thakurgaon Sadar Police Station, confirmed the development.
