CBI to raid Yadav Singh's Agra house soon
The house, known as 'Hari Kothi' by the locals, was found locked in the previous raid using such sophisticated locks that not even the locksmiths arranged by the CBI team could open it.
Following his arrest by CBI and custody for 6 days, Yadav Singh is revealing a lot of secrets about the property scams he conducted at the behest of his political puppeteers. A lot of these secrets are still hidden in the three safes located in the Agra house of this former chief engineer of Noida, which the CBI had failed to open in its raid conducted in May last year.
The CBI has reportedly obtained the keys to these safes from Yadav Singh, now that he is in the custody of the investigative agency and a team is expected to turn up soon in Agra to raid the lavishly decorated house of Yadav Singh in the Gopal Pura area of Agra. The house, also known as 'Hari Kothi' by the locals, was also found locked in the previous raid using such sophisticated locks that not even the locksmiths arranged by the CBI team could open it. Consequently, the team had sealed the house for the time being. Yadav Singh's in-laws' house in Firozabad was also found locked when the team reached the site and none of the family members could be reached.
The caretaker of the house, who is an employee of Yadav Singh, claimed that he did not possess the keys to the house and he only took care of the outside area and lawns.
However, it was clear that Yadav Singh did not have a good image among his neighbours, one of whom was heard saying that it was good Singh's property was being seized by the government as he had never cared to donate even 100 Rs. to the temple all the time he was here.
Although locals believe that these raids on over a dozen locations connected to Singh could pose grave trouble for BSP supremo Mayawati who had sheltered Yadav Singh's corruption during her tenure.
