UP: Mukhtar Ansari Close Aide Ganesh Mishra in ED’s Custody, Big Name In Real Estate Business, Multiple Investigations Carried Out

The Enforcement Directorate has arrested Ganesh Dutt Mishra, a real estate businessman and close aide to Mukhtar Ansari (ED). The ED team transferred him from Ghazipur to Lucknow on Tuesday evening. The ED’s Lucknow office also sent several notices to Ganesh Mishra. Mishra, on the other hand, never appeared in front of the ED. Following this, the Ghazipur police arrested him, and the ED team arrested him and transferred him to Lucknow.

According to media reports, only Ganesh Mishra is in charge of managing the Mukhtar Ansari-related real estate. The Ansari family is thought to have helped Mishra build a significant real estate empire close to Ghazipur, Varanasi, Mau, Azamgarh, and Lucknow. Additionally, claims of purchasing and selling property under Mukhtar’s name have been made.

Prior to this, Ganesh Mishra’s benami properties in Mau and Ghazipur had been connected. The government also tore down Ganesh Mishra’s multi-story architecture in Chandan Nagar Colony, Ghazipur. Under the Gangster Act, this action was taken.

According to reports, the ED team travelled to Ghazipur with a special permit to arrest Ganesh Mishra.
