Telangana ACB Finds ₹1.35 Crore Cash in DSP Assets Probe
Telangana ACB recovered ₹1.35 crore in cash, foreign currency and 14 litres of foreign liquor in expanded searches in a disproportionate assets case against DSP Sankireddy Bheem Reddy.
The Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau has recovered ₹1.35 crore in cash, foreign currency and roughly 14 litres of foreign liquor during a fresh round of searches in a disproportionate assets case involving Sankireddy Bheem Reddy, a Deputy Superintendent of Police with the Police Computer Services.
The operation spanned 10 locations across Hyderabad and Zaheerabad and concentrated on the homes of people suspected of acting as benamis — individuals believed to have conducted financial and other dealings on the officer's behalf.
The cash was seized from the residence of one Bomma Venkatesh, while the foreign currency and liquor were also recovered during the same searches. Investigators additionally took possession of documents and other material that the agency says forms part of the evidence pointing to suspected benami holdings.
The searches were carried out under warrants issued by the Principal Special Judge for SPE and ACB Cases in Hyderabad, and mark a continuation of earlier raids in the same investigation.
The ACB registered the case against Bheem Reddy on June 27, 2026, through its City Range-II unit in Hyderabad. The FIR was filed under Sections 13(1)(b) read with 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, as amended in 2018.
The recovery of foreign liquor has drawn in the Excise Department, which the ACB said has been alerted for necessary action. A case is expected to be registered by the excise authorities in line with the law.
The agency said its investigation is ongoing.
