Armaan Jain probed by ED in money laundering case; Residence searched by officials

On Tuesday, actor Armaan Jain was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in relation to the Tops Grup case. The actor’s South Mumbai residence at Altamount road was searched. It’s known that actor’s close friend, Shiv Sena MLA’s Pratap Sarnaik’s son Vihang is being investigated too. The agency seems to have found suspicious communication between the duo.

An ED official told ANI, “Armaan didn’t appear before the agency today.” And later added that MLA Sarnaik and his two sons have been questioned by the ED on multiple occasions regarding ‘alleged exchange of funds’ between Sarnaik’s aides and Tops Grup officials. The issues came to light when Tops Grup made contract with MMRDA for providing security at construction sites. Officials pointed out that security guards were actually much less as opposed to those mentioned in the contracts.
