The Enforcement Directorate has initiated a money laundering investigation into suspended DSP S. Bheem Reddy. This follows an Anti-Corruption Bureau probe that uncovered approximately ₹300 crore in disproportionate assets linked to the officer.
Why it matters
High-level corruption cases involving law enforcement officials undermine public trust in state institutions.
The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) has registered a money laundering case against suspended Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) S. Bheem Reddy, following the Anti-Corruption Bureau’s (ACB) detection of disproportionate assets estimated at around ₹300 crore during searches in July.
The ED has begun examining the alleged money trail, including the ownership of properties, the source of funds used to acquire them and whether assets were purchased in the names of relatives, associates or suspected benamidars.
The agency is also looking into whether money generated through alleged corruption was routed through different channels and subsequently converted into properties and other assets.
Bheem Reddy, who was posted with Police Computer Services (PCS), was arrested by the ACB on July 6 from his residence at Vessella Meadows, Ibrahimbagh.
