Continuing investigations into the alleged cash-for-BJP ticket cheating case involving Hindutva activist Chaitra Kundapura, the Central Crime Branch (CCB) officials on Saturday recovered over ₹2 crore, which she had used for buying a car, investing in fixed deposits, and purchasing gold valuables.
After gathering information about the money she had spent, a team of police recovered the FD deposits from a co-operative bank in Kundapura, ₹81 lakh in cash, ₹23 lakh worth of gold valuables, and ₹12 lakh worth of EMIs paid for the car she had purchased.
These transactions, according to the CCB officials, were made by Chaitra and her associate Srikanth. Sources said that they are collecting documentary evidence to corroborate this.
