Allegations of question leak, DSHE cancels recruitment exam
Amid allegations of question leak of a Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) recruitment exam, the authority yesterday (May 19, 2022) cancelled the test.
DSHE in an emergency release, signed by Prof Md Shahedul Khabir Chowdhury, director (college and administration wing) of DSHE, mentioned that the recruitment test for the post of office assistant/computer operator has been cancelled for an unavoidable reason.
Police and detective branch officials claimed that they have so far found the involvement of education cadre officials, teachers, college staff and DSHE officials behind the question leak.
Detectives arrested three people from the capital's Wari and Moghbazar areas on Tuesday and early Wednesday.
The arrestees are Md Rashedul Islam (34), a teacher at Patuakhali Government College, Md Nowsadul Islam (37) and Ahsanul Habib (45), both office assistants at DSHE.
The three are now on two-day police remand.
Earlier, detectives arrested Md Sumon Jomadder from Eden College during the recruitment test, and Saiful Islam, an assistant teacher of mathematics at Khepupara Girls Secondary School.
On May 13, Sumon was arrested during the recruitment test for the post of "office assistant/computer operator", which was held at 61 centres in Dhaka, aiming to fill 513 vacancies.
Around 1.83 lakh people sat for the test.
A case was filed at Lalbagh Police Station regarding the incident, and detectives started investigating.
