The CBI is tight-lipped about the embarrassing case in which its own officials are under scanner for allegedly taking bribe from bank fraud accused companies, which were being probed by them, they said.
The search operation is believed to have spread across at least five locations, the officials said.
It is understood that some of these officers were allegedly receiving regular payments from the accused companies, they said.
