The CBI sleuths from Visakhapatnam conducted searches at the residences and offices of Rao at Guntur, Vijayawada and Hyderabad in connection with investigations into a complaint against the construction company, Transstroy (India) Limited, in which the TDP leader has stakes.

Searches were also conducted on the premises of top officials of Transstroy in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and other states.

Indian Bank had reportedly moved the CBI against the company for defaulting in repayment of Rs 500-crore loan.
