Delhi Waqf Board case: Amanatullah Khan Moves Anticipatory Bail Plea

AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan has sought anticipatory bail in the Delhi Waqf Board case, under investigation by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The ED alleges that Khan amassed substantial illegal proceeds through cash transactions related to the illicit recruitment of staff, subsequently investing these funds in real estate under the names of his associates.

Amanatullah Khan was summoned by the ED to appear on February 19, coinciding with Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s scheduled questioning regarding the Delhi liquor excise policy case.

While Khan was not directly accused in the chargesheet filed by the ED, the agency implicated him indirectly, alleging his involvement in property transactions. The chargesheet mentions a total transaction amount of Rs 36 crore, of which Rs 8 crore was purportedly handled directly by Khan in cash, with the remainder managed by individuals associated with him.

The ED has also filed a prosecution complaint against five entities, including three alleged associates of Khan who were apprehended by the agency in November 2023. These proceedings shed light on the intricate web of financial activities and property acquisitions purportedly orchestrated at Khan’s direction.
