Large Cash Discovery Amid Police Raid
As police officers carried out the search, they discovered large amounts of cash, estimated to exceed one crore rupees, hidden within the school premises. The significant amount has raised suspicions of illicit activities, with the investigation pointing towards potential links to local political figures. Although official confirmation on the exact amount is pending, police officials have hinted at the substantial nature of the find.
SBI Team Assists with Cash Verification
In an unusual move, a team from the State Bank of India (SBI) was called in to assist police officials with specialized note-counting machines. The SBI team arrived shortly after the raid began, ensuring accurate cash verification and cataloging. Their participation underscores the scale and importance of the operation, particularly as local law enforcement ramps up efforts to curb illegal financial operations in Ranchi.
