Although the results have been announced, the CBI is still investigating the paper leakage case.
In a recent development, the CBI has arrested the mastermind, Sushanth, from Odisha and remanded him for five days. So far, 42 individuals have been arrested in this case, including Salwar Sandeep, another key figure, who was apprehended on August 4.
