According to the probe, the SDPO Gautam and SHO Abhishek Calls Scandal involves illegal collections from sand, cattle, coal, lottery, and “entry” mafias operating in the region. Authorities believe the officers organized regular extortion and later distributed the money through a structured system.

The Economic Offences Unit (EOU) has started examining digital records, bank transactions, and property documents linked to the accused. Officials suspect that several assets may be benami and registered in the names of third parties.

Investigators also traced properties connected to the officers in multiple locations, including Bihar, West Bengal, and the Delhi-NCR region. The EOU plans to question SHO Abhishek Ranjan at its Patna office as the probe continues. Authorities say more revelations may emerge during the investigation.

Investigators say Ranjan served as a close associate of the former SDPO. The probe revealed links between him and local sand, liquor, and smuggling mafias. Authorities believe he received regular commissions in return for protecting illegal businesses.

The EOU has issued a notice asking him to appear at its Patna office next week. During questioning, he must present documents and explain his income sources.

Preliminary findings suggest that Ranjan accumulated around ₹50 crore worth of assets during his service. Officials are verifying several properties, including flats and land in multiple cities.

The investigation continues as the agency checks suspected benami properties and financial records connected to the case.

During the Kishanganj SHO Abhishek Ranjan raid, investigators searched multiple properties, including homes and offices. Officials found evidence of assets worth crores that appear far beyond his known sources of income.
