Mumbai: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has got permission to detain Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut till August 8. A special court working under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, while hearing the case, gave this permission to the Enforcement Directorate. Due to the hearing, Special Judge MG Deshpande made a stern remark and said – the source of the dirty money should be traced in the case.
Following the same hearing, public prosecutor Hiten Venegaonkar said that the Enforcement Directorate has come to know about two other transactions in the investigation. These need to be examined in depth. At the same time, advocate Manoj Mohite, appearing for Sanjay Raut, said that even after being kept in custody for 4 days, the agency has not been able to find out anything new. Venegaonkar says that the documents show that some persons also gave cash. This amount is about Rs 1.17 crore. These documents are related to cash transactions done in Alibaug. Plots were bought in this area and Sanjay Raut had earlier denied them.
Simultaneously, Hiten Venegaonkar said that due to the investigation of bank accounts, it also came to light that some unknown persons also transferred a huge amount into the account of the criminal. This amount is about Rs 1.08 crore. Thus earlier transactions worth Rs 1.06 crore were caught, now Rs 1.17 crore and transactions worth Rs 1.08 crore have also been received. The investigation in the case is at a critical juncture. On the other hand, Sanjay Raut could not give any information about the money that came into Varsha Raut's account. Manoj Mohite opposed the arguments of the same government advocate, But the court did not accept it. After hearing the arguments of both sides, the special court said – there has been significant progress in the investigation. First of all, the Enforcement Directorate has to gather information about the source of the dirty money and how this money was put into the system. Second, the Enforcement Directorate also has to find out whether this money has come from any criminal work other than these transactions. Third, the Enforcement Directorate has also to be told that if he (Raut) has used this money, then its source is legal and hence he can use it. Keeping all these aspects in mind, the court sent Sanjay Raut to custody till August 8.
