"Acting on a complaint, we raided the residences of Anandprakash and his brother Vijayprakash in the city," an officer from Lokayukta said.
During the raids, it came to light that Rana and his family members had bought costly properties, including two houses in Gwalior, two houses in Bhopal, three flats and two plots here, the officer added.
