ED has called Prakash Raj to question him about a money laundering case

Actor Prakash Raj was called by the Enforcement Directorate on Thursday to appear for questioning in connection with a money laundering case pertaining to a purported ₹100 crore ponzi scheme and fraud case against a jewelry firm based in Tiruchirapalli, according to official sources.

The case under investigation is Pranav Jewellers, a Tiruchirapalli-based partnership firm. The investigation was initiated on November 20 after the firm claimed to have found some gold jewelry and ₹23.70 lakh in “unexplained” cash during a raid.

This corporation has used Prakash Raj (58) as a brand ambassador. Next week, in Chennai, he is scheduled to give a deposition before the federal agency. The actor, who has portrayed a variety of characters in South Indian and Hindi films, has been a vocal opponent of the BJP.

An FIR from the Tamil Nadu Police Economic Offenses Wing is the basis for the ED case. The federal agency said in a statement on Wednesday that Pranav Jewellers and others allegedly obtained ₹100 crore from the public under the pretense of a gold investment program offering large profits.
