Army Court-Martials 11 Soldiers for Leaking Engineers’ Diploma Entrance Exam Papers

An army court-martialed 11 soldiers for leaking entrance exam question papers for an engineering diploma. A havildar from the Bombay Engineers Group and Centre in Khadki, Maharashtra, received 13 months of rigorous imprisonment. Seven Summary Court Martials and four District Court Martials were ordered. No officers responsible for handling the question papers faced consequences. The defense challenged the transparency of the court martial proceedings. The prosecution relied on banking transactions to prove guilt.
