The Enforcement Directorate on October 21 said it has filed a charge sheet under the anti-money laundering law against a man, whose name figured in the Panama Paper leaks, for alleged possession of undisclosed assets abroad.
The prosecution complaint against Sanjay Vijay Shinde, his wife Aparna and a company named Venus Bay Offshore Ltd. was filed before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court in Bhopal on October 18 and the court took cognisance of the charge sheet on October 20, the federal agency said.
The money laundering case against Mr. Shinde stems from an Income Tax Department charge sheet that was filed earlier under the anti-black money law.
