Telangana Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Sankireddy Bheem Reddy is arrested by the Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) in a “disproportionate assets” case. Multiple outlets report that the arrest follows searches carried out at 16 locations linked to him across Telangana and into Karnataka. The case alleges that his assets are disproportionate to his known sources of income and were acquired through corrupt practices and other alleged irregularities.
According to the reports, the investigations uncover a wide range of alleged assets, including multiple high-value properties such as villas, flats, and commercial spaces in Hyderabad and other locations, along with agricultural land in Telangana and Karnataka. Investigators also report recoveries including cash—figures cited include around Rs 40 lakh in one instance, plus smaller amounts—along with gold ornaments weighing about 2 kg and silver articles, as well as bank balances. One outlet also reports that a handwritten diary allegedly recovered during the searches contains details of properties, investments, liabilities and names of alleged benamidars, which investigators use to trace ownership and distribution. The ACB court production is reported as expected, and the investigation is described as ongoing.
