Hyderabad: Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) booked a case of Disproportionate Assets (DA) to known sources of income against Kamatam Sravan Kumar, a Tahsildar of Gajwel Mandal of Siddipet district.
Kumar, a native of Karimnagar, allegedly acquired assets by indulging in unlawful practices and dubious means during his service. Searches were conducted at the house of Kumar and at two other places, the ACB said.
During the searches documents pertaining to several movable and immovable properties including two houses, an apartment consisting of half a dozen flats and four open plots in Karimnagar Town worth Rs. 2.47 crore, two bikes worth Rs.1.60 lakh, four-wheeler worth Rs.30 lakh, gold ornaments worth Rs. 4.20 lakh, and household articles worth Rs. 15.66 lakh, apart from net cash of Rs.11.90 lakh were unearthed.
