Coaching centre owner Raju Singh Malik alias Rajeev and Vikram Parmar, a final year B.Tech student, who were nabbed yesterday, will be interrogated at the CBI headquarters, sources said.
They said the scam was nipped in the bud as agency promptly acted on the input about the web site which was set on February 20 and attracted over 80 lakh hits since then.
