The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday raided 17 locations in Jharkhand and West Bengal in connection with illegal Bangladesh infiltration and recovered fake Aadhaar cards, forged passports, and illegal arms.
In a post on X, the agency said ED Ranchi is conducting searches at 17 locations under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. https://x.com/dir_ed/status/1856267781337121062 "So far various incriminating items including fake Aadhaars, forged passports, illegal arms, immovable property documents, cash, jewellery, printing papers, printing machines, and blank proformas used for forging Aadhaar have been recovered," the ED said. Sources indicate that the ED is scrutinizing several individuals and organizations allegedly involved in illegal financial activities tied to cross-border movement. The raids, which began early on Tuesday, are expected to uncover further links and financial records that may provide more insight into the money laundering networks facilitating such infiltration. The ED has also taken over the Bangladeshi Infiltration case registered in Ranchi. A case concerning alleged Bangladeshi infiltration was initially registered on June 6 this year at the Bariatu Police Station in Jharkhand's Ranchi. The case has now been taken over by the ED. The ED is expected to further investigate the financial and logistical networks associated with this case, which may have implications for cross-border security. (ANI)
