Deputy Collector Raju and Deputy Tahsildar Satish from Zaheerabad in the Sangareddy district were caught by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) for accepting a bribe. The incident took place at the Zaheerabad NIMS office on July 1.
The ACB officials discovered that both Raju and Satish were taking a bribe of Rs. 65,000 to issue compensation cheques related to land acquisition. The money was found with their driver. The authorities are continuing their investigation into the matter.
The public is disappointed to see a senior official like Deputy Collector Raju involved in such corrupt activities.
