ACB Registers Disproportionate‑Assets Case Against REDCO Engineer After Rs 27.65 Crore Seizure

Evidence linking large property and investment documents to construction firms in his wife's name triggers forensic verification and possible prosecution.

Overview

  • The Telangana Anti‑Corruption Bureau registered the DA case and carried out coordinated searches on July 22, 2026, at the REDCO divisional engineer's house, office and seven linked premises.
  • Officials seized property papers for four flats, a G+3 and a G+5 commercial building, bank deposits of about Rs 52 lakh, 2,094 grams of gold, three vehicles, household goods and electronic items, with a current official tally of about Rs 27.65 crore.
  • The ACB says documents show major investments routed through four construction firms registered in the officer’s wife's name and the construction of 10 apartments with an estimated Rs 20 crore investment, which investigators say may mask benami holdings.
  • Including cash and gold seized in a December 2019 bribery trap case, the bureau places the grand total of detected assets at about Rs 28.14 crore and will present the accused to the Special Judge for SPE and ACB Cases for judicial remand.
  • A separate excise case was filed after officers recovered 20 liquor bottles during the raids and investigators will conduct forensic accounting, land‑title checks and bank tracing to verify valuations and identify further transactions.
