Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain Arrested by ED for Money Laundering; to be Procuded in Court on Tuesday

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Delhi minister Satyendar Jain in connection with a money laundering case on Monday. The probe agency alleged that the Delhi minister was involved in hawala transactions with a Kolkata-based firm in 2015-16.

The agency had said last month that assets worth Rs 4.81 crore of Jain’s family and companies “beneficially owned and controlled” by him were provisionally attached as part of a money laundering probe against him. In 2018, the ED had questioned the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader in connection with the case.
