ED has issued summonses for questioning, scheduling appearances for CM’s press advisor Abhishek Prasad, alias Pintu, on January 16, Sahibganj DC Ramniwas Yadav on January 11, and builder Vinod Singh on January 15.
The ED initiated significant actions on January 3, unveiling a crackdown on the case linked to the illegal mining scandal worth Rs 1250 crore in Sahibganj. The agency arrested several individuals, including CM Hemant Soren’s press advisor Abhishek Prasad (Pintu), Sahibganj DC Ramniwas Yadav, DSP Rajendra Dubey, Sahibganj’s mining businessmen Khudania brothers, CM’s associates Vinod Kumar Singh and Roshan Singh, Kolkata businessman Abhay Saraogi, and former MLA Pappu Yadav. The raids extended to the premises of Jamadar Awadhesh Kumar in Birsa Munda Jail, Ranchi.
During these operations, the ED discovered evidence pointing to investments and suspicious financial transactions through shell companies. The agency is now leveraging these findings to guide further actions in the ongoing investigation into the illegal mining and land scam, shedding light on potential irregularities and connections to be probed in greater detail.
