Coimbatore : Even as Zero Gravity, the photography company on Trichy Road opened shutters this morning as usual, the police stationed at the spot allowed Zero Gravity's employees to enter the premises and begin work. Six income tax authorities who arrived at Zero Gravity at 11 am, began their search. 

Additionally, para military force and police have been deployed around Zero Gravity for security purposes. Flying squad officers too are now involved in investigating along with IT officials to ascertain if the money was stocked illegally to distribute for election purposes.



On the basis of a complaint received about unaccounted cash, income tax authorities initiated a raid last evening at Zero Gravity, a photography company in the city. The IT officials went to Zero Gravity located near Kannan Departmental Store on Trichy Road to conduct the raid. Since the owner was not present, the employees were notified about the raid. But the staff had left the office without communicating about the raid to the owner. Due to the absence of its owner, the search was put on hold and recommenced this morning.

Zero Gravity has its headquarters in Bangalore and is mainly involved in covering wedding and cultural events. It also has several branches across Tamil Nadu, with Coimbatore functioning as the main branch.
