Satyendar Jain, ex-Delhi minister, faces ₹17.7cr money laundering charges

India

Former Delhi Water Minister Satyendar Jain and 13 others have been charged by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for allegedly laundering ₹17.7 crore.
The case centers on claims that sewage treatment plant tenders were rigged in 2022 to favor one company—Euroteck Environmental Pvt Ltd—by tweaking eligibility rules so only they could win.

What's going on now?

Jain, top Delhi Jal Board officials, and private associates are all named in the chargesheet.
The ED says fake invoices and hawala channels helped move illegal commissions worth ₹6.7 crore, leading to unfair profits of nearly ₹10 crore.
Properties worth ₹15.36 crore have already been seized as part of the probe.
