In a significant development in the Rs125 crore money laundering case linked to dubious accounts in a Malegaon bank, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on wednesday arrested Akram Mohammad Shafi at Ahmedabad airport.
Shafi, one of the alleged masterminds against whom a look-out circular (LOC) was already issued, was caught by immigration authorities, while attempting to flee to Dubai, said the agency. The officials said that another arrested accused, Siraj Mohammad, opened and operated the 14 dubious accounts at Nashik Merchant Co-operative (NAMCO) Bank in Malegaon, at Shafi's behest. The latter also trained him how to mislead investigators and obscure the money trail, the ED said.
