Substitute exam-taker detained in E China
Online Edition
A college student was detained Sunday night in Jiangxi Province, east China, for posing as another student and sitting the "Gaokao" (college admission exam), local police announced on Monday.
The suspect, Peng, 20, is a college student in Wuhan City, central China. He confessed to the police and gave the names of five other substitute exam sitters.
According to Peng, he and his fellow substitutes were managed by Zhao, 48, who hails from Shandong Province, east China. Zhao arranged accommodation for Peng and the other five substitutes and supplied them with exam attendance cards.
The scam was exposed by an undercover reporter who had gone undercover as an exam substitute. One suspect was apprehended in the exam room on Sunday morning, less than half an hour before the first test was due to end.
Over 9.4 million Chinese high school students took the Gaokao on Sunday and Monday.
Public security authorities across the country are clamping down on the distribution of wireless devices used for cheating, the sale of cheat sheets, and the practice of substitute exam sitters, according to the Ministry of Education (MOE).
