Contractor Rishushri, Accused in Tender Scam, Remains Uncooperative During SVU Interrogation; Makes Shocking Revelations About the 'System'
The troubles for contractor Rishushri, arrested in the state’s high-profile tender scam, continue to mount. During his remand with the Special Vigilance Unit (SVU), the accused has chosen to remain tight-lipped instead of cooperating with the investigation, leaving the involvement of several high-ranking officials still under wraps.
Silence and Evasion: According to SVU sources, whenever Rishushri is questioned about his nexus (connections) with senior officials, he avoids giving direct answers. He has been unwilling to expose the names of influential figures.
The 'Bitter Truth' of Corruption: During the interrogation, Rishushri made a controversial statement, explicitly claiming that "government work is impossible without transactions (commissions)." He alleged that the deep-rooted corruption within the department is simply a "standard procedure."
Uncooperative Behavior: Throughout his remand, Rishushri’s behavior has remained consistently uncooperative. SVU officials report that he is evading questions and attempting to divert the course of the investigation.
