Earlier, the ED on Wednesday carried out searches at eight locations across Uttar Pradesh and Delhi in connection with a Rs 248 crore money laundering probe against Rohtas Projects, a real estate company, based in Lucknow.
The raids were held at six locations in Uttar Pradesh's capital Lucknow and two in Delhi under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The case stems from an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR) registered in 2021, based on 48 First Information Reports (FIRs) filed by homebuyers and commercial space purchasers alleging fraud and non-delivery of promised properties. The number of FIRs has since increased to 87.
According to a forensic audit conducted by the Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (UP RERA), the proceeds of crime in the case amount to Rs 248 crore. (ANI)
