Khan, who did not pass the NEET exam in 2021–2022, fabricated a mark sheet with higher scores and afterward filed an appeal with the high court, claiming that despite receiving 468 marks, he was denied admission to a university.
The court then ordered the rural SP to conduct an investigation into the incident and summoned officials from the National Testing Agency (NTA).
The fraud came to light during the investigation by the cyber cell and Chithara police. The police claim that Khan only received 16 marks on the NEET exam.
