The Enforcement Directorate is probing the illegal transfer of money in the property accumulation case of DMK MP Aa Raza. In this case, the Enforcement Department has seized 15 of its immovable properties, claiming to be Aa Raza’s proxy company.
In Tamil Nadu, the enforcement department is taking action. Senthil Balaji, a minister in Chief Minister Stalin’s cabinet, has been arrested and imprisoned by the Enforcement Directorate. The party leaders, including Chief Minister Stalin, are constantly accusing the central government of threatening the DMK through the enforcement department as the parliamentary elections are to be held next year.
In this case, the enforcement department has frozen 15 immovable properties belonging to DMK MP Aa Raza. According to the Enforcement Directorate, the assets of the alleged Benami Company of Rasa have been frozen and taken over under the Unlawful Transfer of Money Act.
The Enforcement Directorate has seized 15 immovable properties belonging to Aa Raza. These assets are held in the name of his proxy company, Coimbatore Shelters Promoters India Pvt. Ltd. This action has been taken under the asset accumulation case against Rasa.
In the period from 1999 to 2010, there was a complaint that Aa Rasa had added assets of Rs. 27 crore (92 lakhs) to the extent of 575 percent more than his income. In this regard, the CBI registered a case in 2015 and conducted raids at many places.
The Enforcement Directorate has frozen 45 acres of land worth Rs 55 crore belonging to Aa Raza in Coimbatore district. In other words, when Aa Raza was the Union Minister of Environment, action was taken on the complaint that he had taken money to give environmental clearance to a real estate company operating in Gurgaon and that he himself had invested in a benami company. As a result, the Enforcement Department has frozen 15 immovable properties.
