TIL Desk/Business/New Delhi/ The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested jailed ex-promoter brothers of the Unitech realty group– Sanjay Chandra and Ajay Chandra– in a money laundering case being investigated against them, officials said on Tuesday.
They said the brothers were taken into custody on Monday and have been brought to Delhi from Mumbai where they were lodged in separate jails in an alleged cheating case filed by the Delhi Police.
The action came after the Supreme Court earlier this month allowed the anti-money laundering agency’s plea for a fresh custodial interrogation of the duo saying it has obtained new evidence against them and it needs to confront them with those documents.
The ED is expected to produce them before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court here seeking their custody for interrogation, they said.
