What FACTLY found

The suspects apprehended in the alleged NEET(UG) 2024 leak comprise individuals from both Hindu and Muslim communities. The students featured in the viral advertisement are from ‘Universal Institute’ in Kottakkal, Kerala, and are not connected to the paper leak incident. Additionally, news reports indicate that the NEET paper leak incident is not linked to Kerala. Since Kottakkal is a Muslim-majority area, it is likely that many of the rank holders are Muslim
