The Haryana Crime Branch has filed a chargesheet against 19 individuals, including six senior IAS officers, over a Rs 504‑crore fraud case.
The Haryana Crime Branch lodged a formal chargesheet on Tuesday naming 19 suspects in a massive financial fraud estimated at Rs 504 crore. Among those implicated are six senior Indian Administrative Service officers, marking one of the largest corruption probes involving the state bureaucracy.
Investigators allege that the accused orchestrated a scheme that misappropriated public funds through irregular procurement and financial management practices. The alleged irregularities span multiple government departments and have drawn scrutiny from both state and central oversight agencies.
The chargesheet has been submitted to the district court, where the accused will face trial under the Prevention of Corruption Act and related statutes. Authorities said the case underscores a zero‑tolerance stance toward corruption at all levels of administration.
State officials have pledged to expedite the legal process and recover the misused funds, while the accused await further court proceedings.
