ED raids 6 states in drug-linked money laundering case

India

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) just carried out major raids across Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra.
This action targets a network suspected of laundering money for a drug trafficking ring—a case that started with a 2024 FIR from Punjab Police under the NDPS Act.

Pharma companies searched, middleman identified

ED teams searched several pharma companies like Biogenetic Drugs Pvt Ltd and CB Healthcare, plus locations tied to individuals in the case.
The investigation centers on two alleged drug peddlers and a middleman named Alex Paliwal.
Last year, police had already arrested seven people and seized drugs used for making narcotics.
The probe is still ongoing as officials dig deeper into how the syndicate moved its money.
