New Delhi, Oct 10: In connection with a money laundering case, the Enforcement Directorate is conducting searches at the residence of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Amanatullah Khan.
In accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act’s (PMLA) provisions, searches are being conducted.
Based on two FIRs, one from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and one from the Delhi Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB), the ED took action.
Khan, who is the head of the Delhi Waqf Board, is allegedly involved in corruption charges involving illegal appointments to that board.
The recovery of alleged incriminating material and evidence led to Khan’s arrest by the Anti-Corruption Bureau in September of last year in connection with the Delhi Waqf Board corruption case. He did, however, receive bail later.
An official statement said that Khan illegally hired 32 people while serving as the chairman of the Delhi Waqf Board, going against all rules and regulations.
Additionally, he is accused of engaging in favouritism and corruption.
