The CBI team is also likely to visit Katol town, Deshmukh’s constituency, located around 60 km from Nagpur, they said.
The CBI has registered an FIR against Deshmukh after carrying out a preliminary enquiry on the orders of the Bombay High Court to look into the allegations of bribery against him levelled by former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh.
The CBI is also carrying out searches at a number of locations, including Deshmukh’s premises in Mumbai.
Deshmukh had resigned as a minister earlier this month after the high court asked the CBI to probe the allegations against him.
