Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials arrested Subhash Yadav in Patna, Bihar, on Sunday, in connection with a money laundering investigation related to alleged illegal sand mining. Yadav, believed to have ties with the RJD, was apprehended following searches at six locations in Patna conducted by the agency on Saturday. Approximately Rs 2.3 crore in cash was seized during the raids.
Yadav, identified as a “key syndicate member” of the sand mining operation, is slated to appear before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court in Patna on Monday. The case traces back to 20 FIRs filed by Bihar Police against Broadsons Commodities Pvt. Ltd. (BCPL) and its directors, accusing them of unauthorized sand mining. Last year, the ED arrested Bihar MLC Radha Charan Sah, his son, and others involved in the case, alleging proceeds of crime amounting to Rs 161 crore.
