Yet another search was conducted by Income Tax (I-T) officials on the residences and offices of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) MP CM Ramesh in Hyderabad and other locations on Friday, 12 October.
According to sources, around 60 I-T officials have also landed up at his home in Andhra Pradesh’s Kadapa district.
The businessman-politician was reported to be the promoter of Rithwik Projects Pvt Ltd.
Speaking to a local media outlet, Ramesh said the searches were a 'witch hunt'. He said he had issued a notice, as a member of the Political Affairs Committee (PAC), to the I-T department last week regarding the series of searches that they had done across the state.
