The Enforcement Directorate on Monday i.e. today took Aam Aadmi Party’s Amargarh MLA Jaswant Singh Gajjanmajra into custody in the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case registered against him last year.

The CBI probe was conducted following a complaint against Gajjanmajra’s firm at Gaunspura in Malerkotla by a branch of Bank of India in Ludhiana. The bank’s complaint said that through its directors, the firm had concealed the mortgaged stock and diverted the book loans with a false and dishonest intention so that it could be handed over to the creditor bank for inspection and recovery as a secured creditor.
