MP clerk has assets worth Rs 40 cr,held

The clerk draws a salary of Rs 16,000 but owns 49-bigha land on Khandwa road on which stands a two-storey farmhouse. The property is located not far from Indore,the state’s commercial capital.

“The present value of his properties,cash and valuables is Rs 40 crore,” SP (EOW) Manoj Singh told The Indian Express.

The huge farm in Morod was bought a year after Dhuldhoye was found involved in a fake-receipt scandal in 2002-03.

The team also raided an RTO agent,who was also allegedly involved in the scandal,but did not receive much from his house.

Dhuldhoye owns four plots on Sanver Road,has four cars and four other vehicles and lives atop a hotel he owns. The raiding team seized Rs 1 lakh in cash,one-kg gold and 4.5 kg silver. His five bank accounts would be opened on Monday,when EOW officials expect to unearth more details. The raid follows two recent raids by the Lokayukta Police at a peon-cum-storekeeper in Ujjain and a sub-engineer in Mandsaur. Both were found worth more than Rs 10 crore.
