Supreme Court Seeks ED's Response on Releasing Funds from Frozen TMC Accounts
The Supreme Court asked the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to consider releasing limited funds from three Trinamool Congress (TMC) bank accounts frozen in a money laundering probe to cover the party's daily expenses. The court emphasized it was not ruling on the case's merits, which remain before the Calcutta High Court. TMC lawyers highlighted financial difficulties due to the freeze, while the ED noted other unfrozen accounts. The court sought the ED's response on releasing funds to a court-appointed administrator and scheduled further hearings.
