Ludhiana: The CBI on Wednesday conducted a raid at a depot of the FCI at Mullanpur Dakha following complaints of alleged corruption by some officials. A team of the investigating agency from Chandigarh conducted the raid, sources said.
The Centre Bureau of Investigation (CBI) sleuths conducted the raid after some rice sheller owners alleged that few officials of the Food Corporation of India (FCI) were demanding bribe from them, according to the sources.
There were also unconfirmed reports of arrest of a person by the CBI team, but repeated attempts to contact the agency officials for confirmation proved futile. The team was still at the FCI depot when the reports last came in.
