ED raids multiple places in Jharkhand, West Bengal in money laundering probe linked to Bangladeshi infiltration

New Delhi [India], November 12 (ANI): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday launched a series of raids at more than a dozen locations across Jharkhand and West Bengal as part of an ongoing investigation into money laundering connected to suspected Bangladeshi infiltration.
The search operation is underway by separate ED teams under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
Sources indicate that the ED is scrutinizing several individuals and organizations allegedly involved in illegal financial activities tied to cross-border movement.
The raids, which began early on Tuesday, are expected to uncover further links and financial records that may provide more insight into the money laundering networks facilitating such infiltration.

The ED has also taken over the Bangladeshi Infiltration case registered in Ranchi.
A case concerning alleged Bangladeshi infiltration was initially registered on June 6 this year at the Bariatu Police Station in Jharkhand's Ranchi. The case has now been taken over by the ED. The ED is expected to further investigate the financial and logistical networks associated with this case, which may have implications for cross-border security. (ANI)
