The court also mentioned that Anil Deshmukh then transferred the said cash through "havala" on the instructions of Hrishikesh Deshmukh to Surendra Jain and Virendra Jain, all accused in the case.
A special PMLA court in Mumbai, while taking cognisance of a charge sheet filed against former policeman Sachin Waze and others in an alleged money laundering case, has said the money trail prima facie indicates that former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh received Rs 4.7 crore from Mr Waze and his aide Kundan Shinde.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) earlier this month filed its charge sheet against Mr Waze, Mr Deshmukh's private secretary (an additional collector-rank officer) Sanjeev Palande, personal assistant Shinde and 11 others in the case.
Special judge M G Deshpande took cognisance of the charge sheet on September 16 and the court's detailed order was made available on Saturday.
"On careful perusal of the statements and charge showing trail of money prima-facie indicate that Rs 4.7 crore received by Anil Deshmukh from Sachin Waze and Kundan Shinde," the court observed in its order.
