Hyderabad, May 31: The Cyberabad Police have arrested two more accused in the alleged Rs 1,000 crore land racket involving forged government records and fake Government Orders used to encroach and sell valuable government land in Gandipet.
Police identified the arrested persons as Veladi Radhakrishna and his driver, Gyara Praveen Kumar. They have been named as accused numbers nine and ten in the case.
The case was registered at Narsingi Police Station on May 23 following a complaint filed by Srinivas Reddy, Tahsildar of Gandipet Mandal in Rangareddy district.
