Retired senior army officer charged with corruption

New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has filed a chargesheet against a retired Indian Army major general and his wife for possessing disproportionate assets to the tune of Rs.30.37 millions, officials said here no Tuesday.

The agency filed a chargesheet against Major General (retd) Anand Kumar Kapoor whose last posting was at Southwestern Command in Jaipur and also against his wife Mirdula Kapoor before the special judge in Patiala House Court here Oct 26.

"We registered a case against them October last year. Searchers were then conducted at 12 places in Delhi, Gurgaon, Shimla, Jaipur and Mumbai. Kapoor during his service of 35 years had acquired assets, which were hugely disproportionate to his known sources of income," a CBI official said here.

"He has acquired assets either in his own name or in the name of Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) or in the name of his wife even though she did not have any ostensible source of income or in the name of his two children," the official added.
