After checking the candidate's details, the invigilator on duty became suspicious of Ismayil’s identity and informed the school authorities. A further investigation at the school confirmed that Ismayil was not the actual candidate.

Police arrested the youth after receiving a complaint from the school authorities. Manorama News reported that Ismayil told the police he committed the crime because the Plus One student was anxious about failing the exam again.
