DEHRADUN: In its ongoing probe into the Uttarakhand Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UKSSSC) question paper leak case, the Special Task Force (STF) has found that 260 candidates bought leaked question papers for Rs 15 lakh each. Among them, 220 candidates cleared the recruitment exam held in December last year while 40 others didn't get through despite paying for the leaked papers and being aware of the questions that would be asked in the exam. According to STF authorities, some of the candidates who cleared the exam using the leaked question paper are now coming forward and helping the STF in its probe. "Many of these candidates, especially those hailing from the hilly areas, bought the question paper by taking loans from their friends and relatives or by selling their properties.

Also, many of them were under mental pressure during the exam as they were given the leaked question paper just a night before the exam date. They were made to memorise the answers by the accused. Those who succeeded in d...
