The Adjudicating Authority under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) has confirmed the attachment of assets worth ₹7.59 crore held in the name of relatives and friends of Sudhir Parmar, a former special judge for the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) cases, who faces corruption charge.
Mr. Parmar has been accused of receiving illegal gratification of ₹5 crore to ₹7 crore from the owners and promoters of IREO Group and M3M Group for extending favours to them. The assets attached by the ED comprises two of Mr. Parmar’s relatives and friends.
During the investigation, which is based on a First Information Report (FIR) registered by the Panchkula Anti-Corruption Bureau in Haryana, the ED found that the then judge had allegedly received illegal gratification in the form of loan from one Rohit Singh Tomar through his proprietorship firm into the bank accounts of the judge’s relatives, without any documentation.
