New Delhi, Sept. 29 -- The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday searched 14 premises in Chandigarh, Mohali and Panchkula as part of its money laundering probe into the alleged Rs 645-crore public funds embezzlement case involving Haryana government and Chandigarh Municipal Corporation accounts.
The searches covered several jewellers, including Malik Jewellers, KLG Jewels, M.B. Gold Traders, Sham Jewellers and Sunder Jewellers, besides premises linked to Gourav Kansal, who allegedly facilitated routing of the proceeds of crime. The ED launched its probe after a Haryana Police FIR in February over discrepancies in accounts of the Haryana Development and Panchayat Department.
