Telangana’s Anti-Corruption Bureau searched 13 locations linked to Dr. Bhaskar, an Additional Superintendent at the Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences, The Hindu reported. The searches formed part of an investigation into allegations that Bhaskar had accumulated assets disproportionate to his known sources of income.
The supplied material describes the allegation as the focus of the case and does not indicate any finding of wrongdoing. During the operation, officials examined various documents, according to the report. The material does not specify the locations searched, the documents collected or the value or nature of the assets under examination.
It also does not state whether Bhaskar was questioned, arrested or charged, and provides no response from him or his representatives. The status of the investigation beyond the searches was not included. The action therefore represents an investigative step by the Telangana ACB in a disproportionate-assets case involving a senior official at NIMS.
The available account gives no further details about the allegations or the bureau’s next steps.
