Ranchi, Sep 23 (PTI) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted a series of searches on Tuesday in connection with a money laundering investigation tied to an alleged land scam, according to official sources. These raids were carried out in Jharkhand's Ranchi and the national capital, Delhi. As part of the operation, the agency targeted at least six locations in Ranchi and three in Delhi under the regulations of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), as informed by the sources.
The premises under scrutiny are associated with B K Singh, an alleged associate of the primary accused Kamlesh Kumar, alongside several others.
