Delhi liquor policy case: Amit Arora is a "close associate" of Manish Sisodia, CBI had said in a chargesheet.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested another businessman, Amit Arora, in connection with its money laundering probe in the Delhi excise policy case, official sources said Wednesday. Mr Arora is the director of Buddy Retail Pvt Limited located in Gurugram. This is the sixth arrest in this case by the ED.
Mr Arora was arrested last night under the criminal sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), they said. He is expected to be produced before a local court where the agency will seek his custody, the sources said.
The Enforcement Directorate case stems from a CBI First Information Report (FIR).
The CBI, in a recently filed chargesheet in the case, claimed that Mr Arora, with two other accused, Dinesh Arora and Arjun Pandey, are "close associates" of Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and were "actively involved in managing and diverting the undue pecuniary advantage collected from liquor licensees" for the accused public servants.
