The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Friday raided eight locations in Hazaribagh and Ranchi. The searches are linked to an ongoing money laundering probe involving illegal sand mining and extortion against former Jharkhand minister Yogendra Sao, his family, and associates.
The investigation under the PMLA pertains to the generation of substantial proceeds of crime through activities such as extortion, illegal sand mining, and land grabbing.
The officials conducted searches at least eight locations since early morning on Friday. The action is being undertaken as per the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), reported PTI citing sources.
Sao, a Congress leader and former agriculture minister of the state, was raided and questioned by the ED last year in connection with a money laundering case involving his MLA daughter Amba Prasad.
