The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has examined about 150 bank accounts linked to the international syndicate, being probed on the basis of a Mumbai police case, which supplied opioid drugs in huge quantities to its contacts overseas. The proceeds of alleged crime in the case are currently estimated to be about ₹44.50 crore.
It is learnt that these bank accounts were in the name of certain individuals and entities related to a key accused person, Ali Asgar Shirazi, who was arrested by the agency in January and is currently in judicial custody.
Over 25 companies, partnership firms, and proprietorship concerns came under the ED scanner and four companies and partnership firms (Hustlers Hospitality Private Limited, Zetetic Techno India, Trans Air Express, Falisha Technoworld LLP, and One Logistics) have been included as accused.
