ED Raids AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan’s Associates over Money Laundering Probe

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids at multiple locations associated with AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan in Delhi. This action is part of an ongoing investigation related to alleged irregularities in staff recruitment at the Delhi Waqf Board.

The raids, taking place at more than half a dozen locations, are being carried out under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. Khan, who represents the Okhla constituency in the Delhi Assembly, chairs the Delhi Waqf Board.

The ED’s probe stems from FIRs filed by the Delhi Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Central Bureau of Investigation concerning purported corruption in unauthorized appointments within the Delhi Waqf Board.

In previous actions, the agency had raided Khan’s premises in October and subsequently arrested three of his associates in November. The ED’s investigation alleges that Khan amassed significant proceeds of crime from these illegal activities and invested substantial cash amounts in real estate properties in Delhi under the names of his associates.
