The CBI registered the instant case on August 1, 2015, in compliance with the orders of the Supreme Court and took over the investigation of the FIR earlier registered at Police Station Dehat, Bhind against Satyaveer Kushwaha and others. There were allegations of cheating by impersonation in the Police Constable Recruitment Test (PCRT) 2012.

During the CBI investigation, additional evidence was obtained including a CFSL report which confirmed the mismatch of thumb impression and handwriting of the accused. After the investigation, the CBI filed a supplementary chargesheet in 2016 in the court. The court found the accused guilty and convicted him.
