The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has pulled its grip on a former senior manager of Bank of Baroda who provided brick kiln owners in Phagwara, Punjab, with 19 loans totaling Rs 21.19 crore. Kuldeep Singh has been arrested by the ED. In a previous money laundering case, the Directorate of Enforcement detained six persons, including kiln owners Vikram Seth and Suresh Seth.
Suresh Seth was detained in February of this year, while Vikram Seth was nabbed in September of last year by the ED. In the money laundering case, the ED has filed a charge sheet in the special court of Mohali against 14 of their close relatives and relations, including both brothers. In the same instance, the Enforcement Directorate began an inquiry in 2017 after the Anti-Corruption Bureau filed a complaint.
