CBI Court Orders Attachment of Passport Official's Properties
A senior passport official is under investigation for having assets that seem to be worth more than their income.
The CBI, the investigative agency, found about Rs 60 lakh in cash and investments in two properties: a flat in Ghaziabad and a shop in Greater Noida West.
These investments are beyond what the official's income would allow.
A court has ordered the temporary seizure of these properties to ensure they are not sold or used while the investigation continues.
