In the midst of demonstrations over the arrest of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chairman N Chandrababu Naidu, the Additional DG of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Sanjay, said on Wednesday that the money trail in the multi-crore skill development scam is “very clear.”
According to the Andhra CID, it is a “very clear case of government funds transferred and the project of purpose never happened.”
“In this case, a government corporation was formed and it was exclusively formed for this purpose of skill development and the proposal was moved by some private individuals…The money trail is very clearly seen,” the additional DG of CID told news agency.
He added, “You see the role of the ED also in this when they moved in and arrested a few people. So this is a very clear case of government money being transferred and the project itself never happened… How the money went into shell companies and all, is again part of the investigation. So further investigation will reveal the exact end-to-end tie-ups.”
On September 9, the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) court in Vijayawada ordered the TDP chairman to be held in judicial detention for 14 days in connection with an alleged skill development corporation scam.
The Andhra Pradesh high court adjourned on Wednesday Naidu’s petition to quash the charges brought against him. The court, however, ordered that the CID not take Naidu into prison until September 18.
