00:00 The Enforcement Directorate made a decisive move today by arresting Punjab AAP MLA Jaswant
00:11 Singh Majra.
00:12 This arrest followed his reportedly abrupt pick-up by investigative agency in connection
00:17 with a substantial Rs 40 crore bank fraud case.
00:20 When contacted about reports on Majra's detention, AAP's Punjab spokesperson Malvinder Singh
00:26 Kang said it is definitely an old case before he joined AAP.
00:31 However, the way the ED acted with haste during a public meeting raises questions about the
00:36 action taken by the ED.
00:38 The way he was being picked up from a public meeting by the ED shows the BJP's politics
00:43 of depaming the party.
00:44 Gajjan Majra's immediate availability for comment was uncertain.
01:13 But Kang continued to stress that the legal matter originated before Jaswant's association
01:17 with the AAP.
01:19 The circumstances surrounding the arrest have generated a significant level of debate and
01:23 speculation with Kang's statement alluding to potential political motivations underlying
01:28 the ED's actions.
01:31 To provide some context, it's worth noting that in May of the previous year, the Central
01:35 Bureau of Investigation (CBI) carried out extensive raids at properties associated with
01:41 Gajjan Majra.
01:42 These actions connected with an alleged bank fraud amounting to a staggering Rs 40 crore.
01:47 Additionally, in September of the same year, the Enforcement Directorate also executed
01:52 such operations at various locations linked to Gajjan Majra.
01:56 These operations were part of a money laundering investigating closely tied to the alleged
02:00 bank fraud case.
02:03 During these ED raids, the team seized a significant sum of Rs 32 lakh in cash along with various
02:09 mobile phones and hard drives.
02:11 Further intensifying the scrutiny surrounding this case, these developments underscored
02:16 the extensive legal and financial complexities involved in this ongoing matter.
