So far, Rs 351 crore in cash has been recovered in the raids at the premises of Congress Rajya Sabha MP from Jharkhand, Dheeraj Sahu. After finding so many bundles of notes, the Income Tax Department still suspects that Dheeraj Sahu has hidden a treasure many times bigger than this. Therefore, now the Income Tax Department team is preparing to dig the land of Dheeraj Sahu’s house located on Radium Road, Ranchi.
The raiding team has started investigating the house of the Rajya Sabha MP. The IT team is searching the land of the house through Geo Surveillance System machine. Jewelery and other items hidden under the soil are being searched through the machine. Income Tax Department team Dheeraj does not have any doubt on Sahu. In fact, the team’s expectations have increased after the huge wealth found during the raid came to light. They think that treasure may be hidden under the ground of Dheeraj Sahu’s house also.

Today, 12 Income Tax officers in three vehicles have come to Dheeraj Sahu’s residence in Lohardaga for investigation. Jio has also brought surveillance machine. The IT team has brought three family members with itself. At the same time, CISF personnel are deployed for security.
Bundles of notes on the table
Income Tax Department officials are trying to find out whether there are jewelery, ornaments or any other metal items hidden under the ground. Let us tell you that the Income Tax Department team raided Ranchi and other places of MP Dheeraj Prasad Sahu. When IT department teams were raiding Dheeraj Sahu’s house, many shocking pictures were revealed from there. In these pictures, piles of piles were visible all around the table. The amount of cash was so much that even the note counting machines broke down.
80 teams worked day and night
Actually, the Income Tax Department team had started raids against Boudh Distillery Private Limited and its promoters in the case of tax evasion on 6 December. To carry out this action, nine teams of about 80 people from the Income Tax Department and several banks were formed, which were working 24×7. Another team of 200 officials, including security personnel, drivers and other staff, was involved after tax officials found 10 shelves full of cash in some other places. Income Tax Department officials had kept the cash in a total of 176 bags. Counting of the cash kept in these bags was started. Late on Sunday evening, Bhagat Behera, regional manager of State Bank of India, had said that he had found cash in 176 bags for counting.
Congress had distanced itself from the matter
Let us tell you that Dheeraj Sahu’s family is reportedly involved in a major liquor manufacturing business and owns many such factories in Odisha. Meanwhile, after the recovery of huge amount of cash, Congress has distanced itself from Dheeraj Sahu. Party General Secretary Jairam Ramesh had said that the Indian National Congress has nothing to do with the business of MP Dheeraj Sahu. Only he can explain and he should also explain how such a huge amount of cash is being allegedly recovered from his locations by the Income Tax officials.
