Naiduniya Representative, Gwalior. A month has passed since Saurabh Sharma, former constable of Madhya Pradesh Transport Department, who collected crores from black money, went missing. On December 19, 2024, Lokayukta had raided his two houses located in Arera Colony, Bhopal.
After this came the entry of Income Tax and Enforcement Directorate. The matter became bigger after 52 kg of gold and more than Rs 10 crore in cash was found in the car found at Vinay Haswani’s farm house in the forest of Mendori.
Due to the fear of Saurabh going abroad, a lookout notice was also issued to the investigating agencies, but even after this, information about him is not available. The investigating agencies fear that Saurabh is hiding somewhere in the country and is changing his locations.
obtained job through fraud
Let us tell you that Saurabh Sharma, resident of Vinay Nagar Sector 2, Gwalior, was a constable in the Transport Department, who got the job through fraud. After the black money of Saurabh Sharma was revealed, there was a stir from politics to government departments.
This much gold was found for the first time in MP
For the first time, so much gold and cash has been found in the state. This was the reason that even the investigating agencies were surprised. First the Lokayukta conducted raids, then late on the same day, an Innova car registered in the name of Chetan Singh Gaur, close to Saurabh, was recovered in the forest of Mendori in Bhopal.
Look out notice issued
The Income Tax team had reached here. This vehicle was found at the farm house of Saurabh’s brother-in-law Vinay Haswani. After this, the Enforcement Directorate registered a case in this matter and issued a look out notice.
Be it Lokayukta, Income Tax Department or the central level agency Enforcement Directorate, no one is able to reach Saurabh. It is not known whether Saurabh’s entire network, starting from his close ones, was broken in the meantime or all these goods were collected and moved left and right.
Where is Saurabh: Dubai, UK, Maharashtra or somewhere else
