Court Summons Joint Director Of ED In Land For Job Scam

The Rouse Avenue Court has summoned the Joint Director of ED in connection with the money laundering case related to the alleged scam involving land in exchange for jobs.

The court directed the Joint Director of ED to appear with the case record, responding to the ED’s request for additional time to file a supplementary charge sheet. The next hearing is scheduled for July 6.

Former Bihar CM Rabri Devi, Misa Bharti Yadav, Hema Yadav, and Amit Katyal are among the accused in the initial charge sheet. During the court proceedings, the ED alleged that two companies were established to conceal ill-gotten funds. As per the ED, the money belonged to Lalu Prasad Yadav and his family members. These companies have now been included as accused entities in the ED’s money laundering investigation.

The ED informed the court that one of the accused companies is AK Info System. The company pretended to be engaged in data analysis but conducted no business activities. Additionally, Rs 50 lakh was allegedly invested in another company, AB Export, through Tejashwi Yadav. According to the ED, these companies were allegedly utilized by the accused to obscure their illicit activities.

The ongoing court proceedings pertaining to the money laundering case linked to the alleged land-for-job scam. It involves land allocation in exchange for railway jobs. Earlier, on January 30, the ED questioned the former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister for approximately eight hours. Tejashwi Yadav was interrogated at its Patna office. Yadav was summoned to the ED office on Bank Road in Patna for questioning in connection with the Land-for-Job Scam case.
