Day after nine-hour grilling, ED arrests Jharkhand minister Alamgir Alam in case linked to 'tender scam'

New Indian Express  

RANCHI: The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday arrested Jharkhand Rural Development Minister Alamgir Alam in a money laundering case linked to a multi-crore tender scam, days after a massive cash seizure from premises linked to his aide, officials said. The money laundering investigation pertains to alleged irregularities and payment of “bribes” in the state rural development department against awarding tenders. On May 8, ED sleuths had entered the rural development ministry office in Ranchi and searched the files and recovered `1.75 lakh new currency notes and Rs 28,000 old 500 notes from Lal’s official chamber. ED heat is likely to reach also to the top officials of rural development department as the agency, in its remand note submitted to the court, has alleged that “officials from top to bottom” of the department were involved in a money laundering nexus.
