In compliance to Supreme Court order CBI has registered preliminary enquiry into allegations of possession of disproportionate assets by AP DGP Dinesh Reddy.
The Supreme Court on September 6 ordered a CBI probe against the Director-General of Police, V. Dinesh Reddy, on the allegations of acquiring disproportionate assets in his name and in the names of his family members.

A Bench of justices B.S. Chauhan and S.A. Bobde said, "The CBI shall submit the status report to this court within four months.” The  Bench pointed out that the State took the courage to flout the order of the Central Government and did not look into the contents of the complaint and misdirected the enquiry against Umesh Kumar who was appellant.

While there have been allegations doing rounds in power circuits of the state About the preferential treatment being given to Dinesh Reddy, this CBI enquiry comes as a jolt to police boss. Sources close to headquarters say that DGP has been trying hard to pull strings seeking extension. After recent controversy involving DGP over his visit to Goldman Habib Mujtaba Al Aydaroos Baba cases were registered against media houses.
