The CB-CID is currently investigating three TNPSC examinations – 2019 group IV, 2017 group 2A and 2016 VAO test – in which large scale malpractices were suspected have taken place. On Monday, officials arrested drivers K Karthik and T Senthilkumar of Ennore and Sabudeen of Perambur. They were involved in escorting the vehicles used by scam mastermind Jayakumar and another suspect, TNPSC staff Omkanthan, when the tampering of answer sheets happened on the night of September 1, last year when the answer sheet bundles were transported in a van from Rameswaram to Chennai. These drivers were piloting the vehicles of the other two to make sure that there is no vehicle checks by police en-route. TNN
