Started career with ₹3k salary
According to information, Anil Suhane is originally from Panna district. He began his career in 1991 as a Sub-Engineer at the District Cooperative Bank, Ujjain, earning a monthly salary of ₹3,000.
He retired on December 31, 2024, as an Assistant Manager, receiving a total salary of ₹70 lakh throughout his career. However, the assets uncovered during the raid exceeded his known income.
The EOW suspects that Suhane accumulated this wealth through irregularities and corruption in distributing funds under government agricultural loan schemes.
