The Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption informed the Central Bureau of Investigation about the arrest of Enforcement Directorate officer Ankit Tiwari near Dindigul on a bribery charge and search on his office premises in Madurai, a top police officer in the State investigating agency said on Sunday.
“We informed the Joint Director, CBI, in writing about the arrest of the Enforcement Directorate officer and the searches that followed. The information was shared as per the DVAC manual. The investigation can be handed over to the CBI…but since the Tamil Nadu government has withdrawn the general consent for the central agency to operate in the State, we will continue the probe,” the officer told The Hindu.
