Various incriminating documents, copies of sale deeds for numerous properties, electronic gadgets, and cash totaling Rs 24 lakh were also recovered, according to ED officers.
Based on FIRs and chargesheets submitted by the Rajasthan Police against the accused, Bhupendra Saran, and other connected individuals under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), the ED launched this investigation.
