Former Noida chief engineer Yadav Singh, who was arrested in connection with several disproportionate asset cases, was produced before a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court here today.
The CBI had earlier on Wednesday arrested Singh in connection with this case.
During a raid at his Sector 51 residence in Noida on Noveber 27, 2014, Income Tax officials had unearthed a large sum of money, jewellery, gold, diamonds and property papers that could not be accounted for.
The CBI has been probing corruption allegations against the tainted engineer and his family members since August 4, 2015 following an order of the Allahabad high court.
The CBI had in August 2015 lodged an FIR against Singh over allegations of corruption in allotting the Rs 954.38-crore project to private agencies in December 2011.
The agency in December, last year had taken Ramendra, Assistant Project Engineer into custody in connection with corruption cases involving Yadav Singh.
