The Hyderabad Central Crime police have expedited the investigation into the alleged financial fraud in the Telugu Akademi bank accounts.
On Thursday, more than 15 persons, including bank officials concerned and employees of the Telugu Akademi, were questioned in connection with the misappropriation.
