A disproportionate assets case was registered by the Anti-Corruption Bureau against Marri Vamshi Mohan, Special Grade Deputy Collector attached to the Urban Land Ceiling wing in the office of the Medchal-Malkajgiri District Collector, over allegations of acquiring assets beyond known sources of income through corrupt practices.

Officials conducted searches on Friday (May 22) at his residence, office and 11 other locations linked to his relatives, associates and alleged benamis.

During the searches, the ACB unearthed assets valued at around ₹6.22 crore.

The seized assets allegedly include 19 open plots valued at ₹4.46 crore, an independent house at NGOs Colony in Vanasthalipuram, two flats located at Manikonda and Masjid Banda collectively valued at ₹1.12 crore, and a farmhouse spread across two acres at Narrepally in Ibrahimpatnam valued at ₹10 lakh.

Officials said the market value of the properties is likely to be significantly higher than the officially recorded value.

The ACB also found ₹2.10 lakh in cash, bank balances amounting to ₹20 lakh, gold ornaments weighing around 122 grams and two vehicles valued at around ₹32 lakh.

Investigators further identified a suspicious land transaction involving eight acres of agricultural land in Piglipur village of Abdullapurmet mandal in Rangareddy district, allegedly purchased in 2023 in the name of the officer’s father-in-law, Vijay Bhasker.

The accused officer was arrested and produced before the special court for SPE and ACB cases in Hyderabad for judicial remand.

Further investigation is underway.
