Former Mining Director VG Venkata Reddy found himself in hot water as anti-corruption officials launched a three-day interrogation over a shocking sand mining scandal. The intense questioning, involving about 60 probing inquiries, aimed to uncover how certain companies illegally pocketed billions in the scheme.
At the heart of the investigation is a staggering suspected theft of 2600 crore rupees. Investigators are determined to expose the masterminds pulling the strings behind this massive scam. However, their efforts hit a snag as Venkata Reddy appeared reluctant to fully cooperate during the questioning.
The ex-director repeatedly claimed he was simply following orders from higher-ups, offering only vague responses to some of the more pointed questions. His evasive tactics left investigators frustrated .
As the three-day custody period came to a close, Venkata Reddy was transferred to jail pending further investigation.
