PMLA case: Charges framed against ex-forest minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot

Hindustan Times  

A special court in Mohali framed charges against Congress leader and former state forest minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot in connection with a PMLA case on Wednesday. Dharamsot, who held the forest department portfolio in the then Amarinder Singh-led cabinet, was the first former minister to be arrested during the tenure of the Aam Aadmi Party government, for allegedly taking kickbacks to issue permits to cut trees, transfer officials, make purchases and issue no-objection certificates to various entities/persons for opening of petrol pumps and hotels. ED’s special public prosecutor Jagjit Singh Sarao averred that property worth ₹6.83 crore was generated using proceeds of the crime as the accused never explained the sources of funds. The ED had stated that its investigation found that Dharamsot misused his official position and received bribes from various officers and private persons during his tenure as Punjab forest minister.
