A Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) team arrested CBN inspector Siddharth Srivastava in Neemuch, Madhya Pradesh, on Friday, following a corruption complaint linked to digital transactions. Srivastava was taken to Neemuch Cantt police station for legal proceedings after undergoing a medical examination.
The CBI sought transit remand to transport Srivastava to Patna for further investigation. Public prosecutor Chanchal Kumar Baheti informed the district court that the CBI team conducted searches at the CBN premises and a location connected to the officer late Thursday night. Police took him to the district hospital under security prior to his court appearance.
Srivastava is accused under the Prevention of Corruption Act in relation to digital transactions. Reports suggest a potential Rs 30 lakh deal and the recovery of around Rs 4 lakh during the operation, possibly involving a middleman. However, neither the CBI nor CBN has officially confirmed these details.
