The land was previously given to a construction company as per an agreement for a commercial complex. Subsequently, the company has identified that a gift deed of some of the land was in their daughter’s name. However, this gift deed was cancelled later.

The company filed a complaint with the Raidurgam police in 2023 that the ex-IAS officer had concealed this matter and gave it for development. The case was transferred to CCS.

By then, as many as 700 customers had already invested in this commercial complex. Since the loan was not received, the commercial complex could not be completed. The CCS police have registered a case and detained Singh.
