A special court here Tuesday remanded the alleged kingpin of the 2022 JKSSB sub-inspector recruitment exam paper leak case to seven-day Enforcement Directorate custody. Yatin Yadav (43), a resident of Haryana’s Rewari, was arrested here Monday evening under criminal sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The Jammu and Kashmir Service Selection Board (JKSSB) sub-inspector recruitment exam was held on March 27, 2022 but the selected list of 1,200 candidates along with 1,300 junior engineers and 1,000 finance account assistants was cancelled by the Jammu and Kashmir administration in July that year following allegations of paper leak and malpractice.
