CBI files supplementary chargesheet in NEET paper leak case

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a supplementary chargesheet against an accused in the NEET paper leak case before a Delhi court on Wednesday (October 14, 2026).

Special Judge Ajay Gupta directed that a copy of the supplementary chargesheet be supplied to the counsel of the 14th accused, Sheshrav Bajrang Suryawanshi, alias Raj Suryawanshi, and posted the matter for further proceedings on Thursday (October 15, 2026).

The agency has alleged that Mr. Suryawanshi, a resident of Nanded in Maharashtra who was arrested on September 2, 2026, is a close associate of co-accused Shubham Khairnar.

According to the supplementary chargesheet, Mr. Suryawanshi, acting in collusion with Mr. Khairnar, provided the medical entrance examination paper to various candidates and collected money from their families.

CBI officials said Mr. Suryawanshi allegedly asked the candidates to gather at a place in Nanded, where they were provided with the paper. He kept their original documents, such as educational certificates and identity cards, to ensure that they made the payment after the examination.

On August 12, 2026, the designated fast-track court dealing with “criminal cases arising from paper leaks as well as the use of other unfair means in public examinations” took cognisance of the CBI’s chargesheet against 13 other accused.
