Bhubaneswar: A team of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) conducted a raid at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Bhubaneswar on Wednesday over an alleged recruitment scam.
The operation by the central probe agency was launched following allegation of some people securing jobs through forged documents.
Sources said the CBI officials reached AIIMS Bhubaneswar in the morning and questioned at least 27 persons, including some permanent employees, in connection with the alleged scam. The nine-member team also examined several documents.
As per the allegation, as many as five members of a family residing in state capital were given permanent appointments in AIIMS Bhubaneswar in 2023 and 2024. It was alleged that forged documents showing them as residents of Ghaziabad and Gorakhpur were used to secure recruitments to the posts of two sanitary inspectors and three record clerks.
They were earlier appointed in AIIMS Bhubaneswar on a contractual basis by an outsourcing agency. One person of the agency, who is accused of being the mastermind of the recruitment scam, has come under the scanner of the CBI.
It is being alleged that he facilitated the permanent appointment of five of his family members at AIIMS Bhubaneswar through fraudulent means.
