The remand was approved in connection with the Bihar Police constable recruitment examination paper leak of 2023, which is currently under investigation by the EOU. Confirming the development, additional director general (ADG) of the EOU, Nayyar Hasnain Khan, said, "The agency is now working to uncover more details about the exam paper leaks and Mukhia's accomplices. The EOU requested to take Mukhia into custody for five days, but the court, after hearing the case, approved a 36-hour remand." On Friday, the CBI interrogated Mukhia for around three hours. He is accused of leaking papers for several examinations, including the 2023 constable recruitment, 2023 BPSC teacher recruitment and the 2024 NEET UG. According to official sources, Mukhia had been living with his girlfriend in Danapur while evading arrest.
