Anti corruption bureau investigation team have found disproportionate assets worth more than 500 crores with Andhra Pradesh Town and Country Planning director, Golla Venkata Raghu. In addition to this, his benami Nalluri Sivaprasad has also been implicated with evidence for illegal assets. Property documents of more than 50 crore, book value, 50 lakhs in cash and 10 crores in gold and jewellery have been seized. The tip for the amassed assets indicates corruption in his tenures as city planner in Vizag, Vijaywada and Hyderabad.

The search operations target started on Monday at 23 locations. This included the culprit’s house as well as his benami’s house in Mangalgiri.
