Hyderabad: The Crime Investigation Department (CID) is set to file chargesheets in multiple pending cases that were in the limelight, including the Eamcet-II question paper leak, irregularities in Bodhan commercial tax, alleged scam in Indiramma housing and irregularities in CM Relief Fund.
Some of the cases, particularly the Indiramma sousing scam, date back to the time of erstwhile undivided Andhra Pradesh.
CID Additional Director General of Police Shikha Goel, who took charge recently, said that CID officials finished probes into a majority of cases registered previously and filed charge sheets in court. She said she would look into these legal proceedings to speed up trials for convictions.
Senior CID officials, focusing on finishing all pending cases, asked the respective investigation officers to follow up on legal proceedings in the cases.
In the cases, multiple arrests have been made through the long periods of probe, with an advocate who was a suspect in the Eamcer-II paper leak case also having died in police custody.
Sources said that the officials who worked in CID a few years ago wrote to the vigilance and enforcement officials, seeking information about irregularities in the Eamcer-II paper leak case, but it remains pending due to lack of evidence.
The probe into the Eamcet paper leak was delayed after the investigation officer was changed multiple times and the case links were established to different states and colleges. Finally, the CID found that the paper had leaked from the printing press.
In July 2014, the CID registered cases in connection with Indiramma Housing irregularities, while in 2015, the CID registered cases related to alleged irregularities in CMRF and in 2016, took up the Eamcet-II medical question paper leak.
