The case was registered after CBI officials conducted searches at his office and residence in Rajahmundry and also at his house in Hyderabad.
Searches were also conducted at the residential premises of Rao's close relatives in Vijayawada and Hyderabad, following which assets worth over Rs two crore were found, the release said.
