Operation Led by CCB Inspector Nandishwara Kumbar
Inspector Nandishwara Kumbar led the CCB team during the operation. After intercepting the vehicle, officers conducted a thorough inspection. With the help of mechanical experts, they discovered hidden compartments that were used to conceal the cash. This attempt to move money without proper documentation raised suspicion immediately.
Inspector Kumbar’s team seized the ₹2.73 crore, ensuring it was secured as evidence. The absence of valid paperwork made the transport illegal, and the police quickly took control of the situation.
Investigation Underway Following Cash Seizure
The authorities registered a case and launched a detailed investigation. Police are now tracing the money’s source and identifying those responsible for transporting it. The investigation will explore potential connections to other financial crimes, illegal business activities, or money laundering operations. Officers are also examining whether this cash links to larger criminal schemes involving political funding or black money.
The CCB team’s swift action marks a significant step in curbing illegal cash movements in the region. Their vigilance and timely response played a key role in preventing this crime. Police have assured the public that they will soon report further developments as they uncover more details about the operation.
