The State Government received a letter from the company regarding this latest development and that an enquiry was instituted against him for his suspected involvement in fraud and breach of trust in financial deals. The Chief Minister, YS Rajasekhara Reddy said that the money released was safe since a reputed company like Volkswagen was connected with the whole affair.
