NEW DELHI, Aug 19: The CBI has arrested five people, including its own deputy superintendent of police and two officials of the Northern Coalfields Limited (NCL), in Madhya Pradesh's Singrauli in a corruption and bribery case. NCL is a 'Mini Ratna' company under the Coal Ministry.
The federal probe agency conducted searches in connection with the case on August 17 in Singrauli and Jabalpur, apart from Noida in Uttar Pradesh.
The premises of various officials of the NCL, a 'Mini Ratna' company under the Coal Ministry, including that of Subedar Ojha, Private Secretary to CMD NCL and manager (secretariat), former NCL CMD Bhola Singh, its present chief vigilance officer (CVO)and some other senior officers were searched, official sources said.

A Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) spokesperson said Rs 3.85 crore in cash was recovered from Ojha's residence.
"This amount was allegedly amassed from several contractors and officials in lieu of favours for their operations in NCL, Singrauli," the spokesperson said.
He added that Ravi Shankar Singh was allegedly acting as a "conduit" between various contractors, businessmen and several officials of NCL, facilitating and delivering "bribes".
The CBI spokesperson said that Diwesh Singh was arrested "red handed" while delivering a Rs 5 lakh "bribe" to Damle in lieu of obtaining a favourable report in matters of complaints and investigation pending against them and being conducted by the probe agency.
