A Supreme Court lawyer has sent a legal notice to the government, seeking fresh admission tests for the medical and dental colleges.
Younus Ali Akhand, who is known for filing a number of public interest litigations in the past, yesterday sent the notice to the secretaries to the Cabinet Division, law, education ministries in the afternoon by post.
The notice said that the question papers of the admission tests held on Friday matched with leaked questions and therefore authorities should cancel the test within 24 hours.
The lawyer also demanded proper probe and said he, in default, would file a petition with the High Court seeking remedy.
On Tuesday, RAB arrested four people – a doctor and a teacher of a coaching centre – for their alleged involvement in question leak, and seized Tk 38,000 in cash and bank cheques for Tk1.2 crore from their possession.
More than 87,000 students appeared in the entrance examinations against around 11,000 seats for the MBBS and BDS courses on Friday.
