ED arrests 2 in money laundering case against Satyendar Jain

The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) has arrested two people, allegedly the associates of Delhi cabinet minister Satyendar Jain, in connection with its ongoing money laundering probe. Jain was arrested by the federal agency in May and is currently in judicial custody.

The agency had raided the premises of the two arrested - Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain - last month.

A special CBI Court last month dismissed Jain's bail plea. The court held that Jain holds an influential position, and it cannot be ruled out that he could influence witnesses.


"The matter is still stated to be at the stage of investigation, and it was stated that additional documents recovered during the search operations were yet to be examined and analysed and even the complaint is yet to be filed, so the possibility of tampering with evidence cannot be ruled out," the Court had held.
