CBI Registers Fresh Bribery Cases Against Army Auditors in NashikPreviousNext

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has registered fresh bribery cases against auditors posted at the Army Aviation Centre's Pay and Accounts Office in Nashik. The investigations followed reliable information and a joint surprise check in November 2024, revealing that officials allegedly accepted bribes to expedite genuine payments to army personnel. Mobile phone data of the accused auditors uncovered incriminating chats, leading to new cases. The probe involves multiple officials and continues under CBI supervision.
