Mumbai: Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader and former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh continue to be trapped in corruption cases. The ED, which is probing against him, has filed a supplementary charge sheet in the special PMLA court in the case of money laundering and corruption on Wednesday (29 December 2021). This charge sheet is more than 7000 pages.
According to the same report, the charge sheet alleges that Deshmukh and his family have committed money laundering amounting to Rs 50 crore. Apart from Deshmukh, the ED has also included his two sons Rishikesh and Salil Deshmukh and Deshmukh's CA Bhavik Panjnani as accused. However, the Enforcement Directorate is yet to record the statements of Salil and Rishikesh in connection with the suspicious transactions. Along with this, the Enforcement Directorate has claimed in the charge sheet that the Deshmukh family operated 27 fake companies.
The Enforcement Directorate has also recorded the statements of former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh and former Maharashtra Chief Secretary Sitaram Kunte in the charge sheet. In the investigation of this case, the Enforcement Directorate has come to know that Deshmukh and his family have made many suspicious financial transactions, the answers of which are yet to be received. In the charge sheet, the ED has also questioned the character of Maharashtra Transport Minister Anil Parab. Although the Enforcement Directorate has not said much in this but has expressed doubts that 12 IPS officers have got the desired posting after the recommendation of Anil Deshmukh.
