Income Tax raids at Tamil Nadu Chief Secretary P Ramamohana Rao's residence in Anna Nagar concluded on Thursday morning.

The department had on Wednesday searched 11 locations linked to the chief secretary, including his official chamber and residence, besides those of his son, and claimed to have seized Rs 30 lakh in new currency and five kilogram gold.

The searches were also conducted in Chitoor on premises of Rao's relatives in neighbouring Andhra Pradesh. IT officials claimed Vivek had admitted to having undisclosed income of Rs 5 crore.

The searches followed the recent seizure of Rs 135 crore cash and 177 kg of gold from sand mining baron Shekar Reddy and his associate Srinivasulu, the largest since the Modi government announced demonetisation of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 currency notes.
