200 included in 'officers of dubious integrity' list; those arrested earlier also featured in list

- SHAN A S @ T'Puram

AS MANY as 700 government officials are under the scanner of the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau (VACB) on charges of corruption. Of these, 200 have been included in the 'officers of dubious integrity' (ODI) list, highly placed sources told TNIE.

The 200 officials had investigations carried out against them in the past, only to wriggle out of the predicament. The remaining 500 officials faced no such action, but vigilance had received multiple tip-offs on their involvement in graft.

Sources said that most of the officials who were arrested in sting operations featured in the list that vigilance sleuths had prepared.
