Bhopal: A move is on to probe the infamous Vyapam scam of Madhya Pradesh, that witnessed death of at least 40 people in the age group of 25-40 during course of its inquiry by various investigation agencies since 2012, afresh by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
A signal to this effect emerged after the CBI, probing the scandal, has decided to reopen the case of mysterious death of an accused, Deepak Jain, in an road accident in Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh on February one, 2014. The CBI had earlier closed the case after having failed to make any breakthrough in it.
“We have reopened the case of death of Deepak Jain, one of the alleged racketeers involved in arranging admission of candidates to medical colleges in MP in fraudulent manner,” CBI sources told this newspaper on Monday.
Accordingly, a Gwalior-based businessman Pawan Mittal, who employed the deceased in his firm, and one Vikram Singh Baghel who reported the incident to the police, were summoned for questioning by local CBI branch last week, sources said.
