July 06, 2015 10:39

A trainee woman cop, recruited through Vyapam, reportedly committed suicide even as the mysterious deaths of people associated with the scam continued to rise on Monday.

The body of the trainee Sub-Inspector (SI), Anamika Kushwaha, was recovered from a pond under mysterious circumstances.

Recruited in February 2015, she was staying in a hostel in the Sagar Police Academy in Madhya Pradesh.

Shortly after the report of the death, Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh tweeted, "Training Cop recruited through Vyapam commits suicide in Sagar Police Academy MP. 46th or 47th ?"

This is the third death reported in the past three days related to the mysterious Vyapam scam.

Investigative journalist Akshay Singh had suddenly died on Saturday when he had gone to interview the family of a deceased Vyapam scam accused in Madhya Pradesh.
