PATNA: Sleuths of the Special Vigilance Unit (SVU) on Friday raided various locations of Saharsa jail superintendent Suresh Choudhary and recovered documents related to 15 land deeds in which over Rs 3 crore had been invested. Cash amounting to Rs 10 lakh was also recovered from the drawers in his office. The SVU sleuths also gathered information on investment in benami property made by Choudhary near the Indo-Nepal border.
After the registration of a disproportionate assets (DA) case against Choudhary, searches were conducted in his office and residence in Saharsa as well as his native place in Muzaffarpur on Friday. “Assets over four times of his known sources of income have been unearthed so far. The amount is expected to increase,” SVU ADGP Nayyar Hasnain Khan said.
