Enforcement Directorate Raids Multiple Locations in Parimatch Online Betting Money Laundering Case
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted searches at 12 locations across Maharashtra, Delhi-NCR, Rajasthan, and Gujarat on September 2, 2026, investigating money laundering linked to the Cyprus-based online betting platform Parimatch. The raids targeted payment companies, chartered accountants, company secretaries, and payment gateways allegedly involved in converting betting proceeds into cash and facilitating illegal remittances and sham Overseas Direct Investments. This follows an FIR by Mumbai Police's cyber unit accusing Parimatch of duping users through online betting.
