The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has launched a fresh round of raids in connection with a money laundering investigation linked to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Sanjeev Arora. Search operations are being carried out simultaneously across multiple locations in Delhi-NCR and Punjab as part of the agency's ongoing probe.
According to sources, ED teams searched six premises in Delhi-Noida, Ludhiana, Jalandhar, and Bareilly, covering both residential properties and business offices. The locations are reportedly associated with individuals and entities that surfaced during the investigation into Hampton Sky Realty Limited.
The action has been initiated under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), with investigators aiming to collect crucial documents and digital evidence related to suspected financial irregularities. The raids follow inputs gathered during earlier stages of the investigation and are intended to strengthen the agency's findings.
ED officials are examining a network of financial transactions and business links connected to the case, which involves allegations of illegal fund transfers and money laundering. The latest searches are being treated as a follow-up operation to verify and expand on previously obtained evidence.
The investigation into the Hampton Sky Realty matter remains ongoing, and officials are expected to scrutinize additional financial records and digital data seized during the raids as they continue to trace the alleged money trail.
