ED Arrests Kolkata Businessman in Land Grabbing Case, Raids Investment Fraud Sites
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Kolkata businessman Amit Gangopadhyay in a money laundering case linked to alleged land grabbing, forgery, and illegal property control. Gangopadhyay faces multiple FIRs related to these allegations. Separately, the ED conducted raids in Kolkata and Indore targeting the Amrit group of companies over an alleged investment fraud involving unreturned deposits. Investigations involve forged documents, manipulation of land records, and cheating claims, with authorities continuing to probe both cases under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
