There Is Evidence Of Money Laundering: ED In Delhi Liquor Policy Case

Delhi/Hyderabad, Feb 28 (Maxim News): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has responded to the verdict of the Delhi trial court in the excise policy case. It said that there is credible evidence that money laundering has taken place in this matter, which is why the investigation has been continued. It said that all of it has been included in the chargesheets. Therefore, an ED official is of the opinion that the money laundering aspect should be considered separately in this case and allowed to be investigated separately.

It explained that the trial court also did not take this decision in the money laundering case, and if allowed, they will continue their arguments. However, as per the PMLA Act, the ED does not register a criminal case independently. There must be a recommendation or complaint from the CBI and the police. According to the Supreme Court verdict in the Vijay Madanlal (2022) case, if a verdict of acquittal is given in any corruption case, the ED case associated with it will also be dismissed. The Delhi excise case is also similar. The CBI (August 17, 2022) registered a corruption case earlier. Later, the ED filed a case (August 22, 2022) under the aspect of money laundering. However, the ED official said that the money laundering aspect should be looked into separately in this case as there is credible evidence. (Maxim News)
