GUWAHATI: Assam police caught four people from various parts of the state for allegedly trying to play foul and manipulate the rules of the Assam Direct Recruitment Examination (ADRE).

Some of the arrested candidates are reportedly two exam applicants appearing for the examination. They include Rabin Kumar Bora from Diphu in Karbi Anglong district, and Sapon Das from Morigaon district. The other two suspects apprehended were female candidates going to sit for the exam. The police declined to divulge their names.

The police case is that Bora had collected the roll numbers of two candidates for the ADRE-one from Golaghat district and another from Jorhat district.

Then he briefed them about what to do during the exam and communicated all this with Das over phone. There, however, was no question of money transaction in their exchange.

All the accused were later brought to court.
