ED raids multiple locations in Kolkata in connection with fraud case

On Tuesday, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) carried out raids at several locations in Kolkata in connection with a financial irregularity case originating in Patna, Bihar. These operations are part of a broader investigation into a scam involving a Delhi-based company, which has defrauded victims of crores of rupees.

Sources revealed that the ED took over the investigation after a victim of the scam alerted the central agency's national headquarters in Delhi. The raids in Kolkata targeted specific properties believed to be linked to the Patna-based fraud, as ED expands its probe into other cities across India.

In Kolkata, ED officials raided three locations, including properties at Gurusaday Road in Ballygunge, Jasmine Tower on Shakespeare Sarani, and a residential flat in the Waterloo Building, central Kolkata. Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) personnel accompanied the ED officials during these operations, providing security.

At the time of this report, the raids were ongoing, with investigators suspecting additional connections between the scam and other locations in West Bengal.
