An FIR against him and his son Dr Shakti Singh Kirar was registered in the Vyapam’s Pre-PG entrance test rigging issue.
Kirar had been untraceable since the scam was exposed and his name figured in it during the Gwalior STF’s probe, which had also registered a case against him, eight months ago.
The CBI has named eight persons in the FIR registered on July 15 in a case related to Pre-PG examination of 2011.
