The Andhra Pradesh CID on Friday began searches at some of the offices of Maytas Infra and Maytas Properties here as part of the ongoing investigations into the Satyam fraud, a senior CID official said.
"As part of investigations into the Satyam fraud, a team of CID officials has entered the office premises of Maytas here and began checking for any relevant documents on the fraud," the official said on Friday night.
The Maytas firms are promoted by the family of disgraced Satyam founder B Ramalinga Raju.
The investigators yesterday found several 'dumped' documents of different companies related to family members of Rajus during searches at the residential flats used by Rajus at different locations in the city. The searches in these flats are continuing.
