1500 Cr Hyd Land Scam, Ex YCP MLA Booked!

Several allegations surfaced against YSRCP leaders over illegal activities during the party’s tenure in Andhra Pradesh. From liquor and sand to mining and land dealings, multiple investigations are already underway into alleged large scale irregularities. Now, former YCP MLA from Vinukonda, Bolla Brahmanaidu, has landed in fresh trouble in a massive land grabbing case linked to Hyderabad.

According to police, an attempt was made to illegally occupy a prime land parcel worth nearly Rs 1,500 crore in Gandipet, one of Hyderabad’s fastest growing and most expensive regions. Authorities say fake government documents and forged GOs were allegedly created to claim ownership over the land.

The issue came to light after the Gandipet Tahsildar detected irregularities during the registration process and alerted the police. Following a detailed probe, officials identified the involvement of several persons including Nimmala Rajesh Goud, Venugopal and Sai Kiran, along with former MLA Bolla Brahmanaidu and his brother Bolla Ramesh.

Police revealed that the accused allegedly fabricated documents claiming the government had allotted the land to them. Based on those forged papers, they reportedly planned to register and later sell the property illegally. Investigators say the group even negotiated deals to sell the land at around Rs 3.5 crore per acre.

During the investigation, police reportedly found financial transactions worth nearly Rs 4 crore connected to the scam. Officials also traced two separate money transfers from accounts linked to Bolla Brahmanaidu.

A case has been registered at Narsingi Police Station. However, by the time police intensified the probe, Brahmanaidu and his brother had reportedly gone absconding. Cyberabad police said special teams have now been formed to trace and arrest the accused.
