The Enforcement Directorate (ED) custody of AAP minister and Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain was extended by Rouse Avenue Court in Delhi on Thursday until June 13.

The ED had requested an extension of his detention after recovering Rs 2.82 crore and 133 gold coins during raids at his home on May 30 in a case pertaining to money laundering. On the 9th day of his 9-day detention, the Minister was brought before Special CBI Judge Geetanjali Goel.

Notably, the ED stated that it seized several incriminating documents and digital information during the search on June 7. The total movable assets were taken from a “unexplained source” and “discovered to be hidden” in the raided locations, according to the ED.

ED was represented by ASG SV Raju today, while Jain was defended by Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal in the Special Court case.

In connection with an alleged disproportionate assets case against Jain and others, the agency has attached properties worth Rs. 4.81 crore belonging to five firms and others. Akinchan Developers, Indo Metalimpex, Paryas Infosolutions, Mangalayatan Projects, and J.J. Ideal Estate, among others, were said to own these assets.

According to the ED, those who assisted the Delhi Minister in money laundering are Ankush Jain, Vaibhav Jain, Naveen Jain, and Siddharth Jain (Directors of Ram Prakash Jewellers Pvt Ltd), G S Matharoo (Chairman of Lala Sher Singh Jivan Vigyan Trust, which runs Prudence Group of Schools), and Yogesh Kumar Jain (Director of Ram Prakash Jewellers Pvt. 

The money laundering case is based on a FIR filed by the CBI in 2017 under the Prevention of Corruption Act against the minister and other persons, alleging that the minister acquired assets disproportionate to his known sources of income between February 2015 and May 2017.

The CBI then filed a chargesheet against Jain in December 2018.
