NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has attached fresh assets worth Rs 101 crore of a Maharashtra-based firm in connection with its money laundering probe in the coal scam case, the agency said today.
It issued a provisional order for attachment of an office building worth Rs 80 crore at the integrated steel plant of Jayaswal Neco Industries Limited in the Siltara area of Raipur in Chhattisgarh and land worth Rs 21 crore in Bilaspur district.
The total value of the attached assets was Rs 101 crore, the agency said in a statement. It had attached assets worth Rs 206 crore of the firm last year.
The ED had booked a criminal case against the firm and others to probe money laundering charges, on the basis of an FIR lodged by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe alleged irregularities in the coal blocks allocation.
The CBI had earlier filed a chargesheet against the firm. (AGENCIES)
