The crime branch of the state police may not be able to crack the case of alleged unfair means of the education minister, Peerzada Mohammad Sayeed, as there is no record available with Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (BOSE) authorities with regard to the original answer papers of the candidate.
Sources said that after chief minister Omar Abdullah handed over the case to crime branch for probe the head of the BOSE, Dr Shiekh Bashir directed the officials of concerned section to look for the answer papers of the candidate but they could not find any of the papers. "Though the board officials put up in all their efforts to trace the answer papers of the candidate from the secrecy section but failed to locate any," said the sources from the BOSE.
They added that in the absence of the original answer papers of the candidate it will be a bit difficult for the investigating agency to solve the case. "Since the board authorities clearly say that the original answer papers of the candidate are not available with them so the investigating agency will have a tough go in solving the case," sources added.
Confirming that there is no record available with board with regard to the answer papers of the candidate, chairman of the BOSE, Dr Shiekh Bashir, said, "The case is two years old and we do not keep the old papers but sell those. Even then we tried our best to get the answer papers of the candidate but failed to trace them from our secrecy section."He further denied the allegations of the use of unfair means to help the minister’s son pass the matric examinations, saying that the issue is being raked up by the official for his personal interests.
