On 6 June, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) raided fifteen places in Mumbai and Kochi, including Moriya’s residence.
These raids targeted individuals and organizations, which are associated with contractors and officials, who are suspected of work -related fraud activities.
The raid was conducted under the provisions of prevention of the Money Laundering Act (PMLA), seeking to detect the income of alleged financial misconduct.
One of the important drainage arteries of Mumbai, the Mithi River, attracts nationwide attention after the 2005 flood, which highlighted the immediate need for effective flood prevention measures.
Since then, several disillum operations have been carried out by civilian agencies to prevent future floods. However, the investigation has detected discrepancies in the reported vs. actual disillum work, increasing the suspicion of widespread corruption in the management of the project money.
Apart from Moriya, her brother was also questioned by Ed about the case.
Prior to investigation, the Bureau of Corruption (ACB) and Competolar and Auditor General (CAG) have been investigated, both flagged off the possible financial misconduct related to disliked operations.
ED’s participation comes after these reports, the agency registered a money laundering case to investigate the illegal turn of public funds.
The Enforcement Directorate suspects that a network of contractors and middlemen is submitting a report to be completed wrongdoing to close funds for important infrastructure work.
