In a significant development in the ongoing money laundering probe against Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Sheikh Shahjahan, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has seized assets amounting to ₹12.78 crore. Shahjahan, who was arrested recently after evading authorities for nearly 50 days, is under investigation for his alleged involvement in various criminal activities.

The Enforcement Directorate, in a recent statement, disclosed that their probe under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) unearthed substantial evidence indicating that Shahjahan had acquired proceeds of crime through illicit means. These ill-gotten gains were allegedly being concealed through a network of movable and immovable assets.

The attached properties include a total of 14 immovable assets, ranging from apartments to agricultural lands, fishery lands, and buildings situated in Gram Serberia, Sandeshkhali, and Kolkata. Additionally, two of Shahjahan’s bank accounts have also been frozen by the agency as part of their investigation.

Shahjahan faces a slew of allegations, including land grabbing and sexual assault, and had been on the run since January 5. His arrest came following a violent altercation between Enforcement Directorate officials and his associates, triggered when the officials attempted to search his residence in connection with a ration distribution scam.

The Enforcement Directorate’s probe into Shahjahan’s activities stems from multiple First Information Reports (FIRs) registered by the West Bengal Police. These FIRs cover a spectrum of offenses, including but not limited to sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Arms Act, SC and ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act, and West Bengal State Highways Act.

Among the litany of charges levied against Shahjahan are allegations of making threats of bodily harm, murder, attempted murder, extortion, and land grabbing from the general public. The gravity and scale of these accusations underscore the urgency and diligence with which law enforcement agencies are pursuing the case.

The attachment of Shahjahan’s assets marks a significant milestone in the ongoing investigation, signaling the authorities’ resolve to tackle corruption and criminality at all levels. As the legal proceedings unfold, further revelations are expected, shedding light on the extent of Shahjahan’s alleged involvement in various illicit activities and the repercussions thereof.
