ED probes money trail in law university admission irregularities

The Enforcement Directorate has initiated a money-laundering probe in the case of alleged irregularities and corruption in the admission of students under the NRI quota at Tamil Nadu Dr. Ambedkar Law University, Chennai, during 2016-17.

After registering a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, the ED issued summons to the accused persons, including the then Vice-Chancellor, P. Vanangamudi, sources in the intelligence agencies said on Friday.

The ED case relies on the First Information Report registered by the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption in 2018, which exposed serious irregularities in the admission to various law courses under the NRI quota.
