Tirupati, Sept.19, (TIRUPATITIMES.COM)
Sleuths of Anti-Corruption Bureau of Andhrapradesh Police have conducted
simultaneous raids on the houses of an appraiser attached to the hundi
offering of Lord Venkateswara temple at Tirumala near here today and
seized several documents that reportedly confirm possession of assets
worth more than Rs. 75 lakh, disproportionate to his known sources of
income, ACB sources told.
The abrupt raids, after a gap of several years, on the premises of an
employee of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) who is an evaluator of
precious offerings at TTD Treasury Office here, by the ACB has created
tremors in TTD employee circles. TTD that manages the affaires of the
India's richest temple has about 10,000 strong staff , temple
sources said adding that of them, more than 1000 employees are very
rich.
