NEW DELHI — Federal anti-money laundering authorities executed coordinated search operations on Thursday across multiple locations in Andhra Pradesh, targeting former senior police official P. Sitarama Anjaneyulu and several associated entities as part of an expanding probe into alleged irregularities within the state's civil service recruitment examinations.
The enforcement action, which investigators initiated early in the morning, centers on suspected financial misconduct and procedural manipulation during the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) Group-I evaluation process. Alongside the former Indian Police Service officer's residence, federal teams descended upon the properties of CamSign Media owner P. Madhusudhan Rao and the prominent Haailand resort situated within the Guntur district, seizing crucial digital hardware and physical documentation.
According to investigative briefings highlighted by regional correspondents and sources from The Hindu, the financial probe agency is meticulously examining financial trails and communication logs that potentially link the raided individuals to questionable administrative decisions during the recruitment cycle. While formal charges are yet to be finalized against the primary targets, the ongoing inquiries reflect a widening net aimed at dismantling networks accused of compromising public sector examination integrity.
