NEW DELHI: On Tuesday, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) will present Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain before the Rouse Avenue Court,  and is likely to seek his 14-days custodial remand.

On Monday evening, the ED arrested Jain in connection with a Prevention of Money Laundering investigation involving disproportionate assets filed against him and others. Various papers and statements from the accused and witnesses in the case will be presented before the Minister.

The ED seized property worth Rs 4.81 crore from Jain's relative in April.

"Attached were immovable properties worth Rs 4.81 crore owned by Swati Jain, Sushila Jain, and Indu Jain through various companies. Actions were initiated against Akinchan Developers Pvt Ltd, Indo Metal Impex Pvt Ltd, Paryas Infosolutions Pvt Ltd, Manglayatan Projects Pvt Ltd, and JJ Ideal Estate Pvt Ltd "an official from the Department of Education said.

The investigation was launched when the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a FIR against the Minister and others under section 109 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and sections 13(2) and 13(1) (e) of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
