Probing the Rs125 crore money laundering case involving dubious accounts held in a Malegaon bank, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has discovered a maze of at least 250 accounts spread across Mumbai, Gujarat, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. The agency has issued notices to various banks, requesting details of KYC information and transaction records related to these accounts.
Allegedly linked to shell companies, including proprietorships and partnership firms, these accounts were opened recently, with the help of KYC documents obtained under false pretexts. The sole aim behind opening these accounts was to facilitate illicit transactions, the probe revealed.
The officials, privy to the investigation, suspect that the dirty cash may be linked to a range of illegal activities, including Ponzi schemes, a betting app syndicate, cybercrime, and narcotics trade.
The ED's focus now is on unraveling the connections between the 250 accounts and their 14 counterparts in Malegaon and also identifying the true owners behind the shell companies.

A promising premise undone by predictable execution
The title Divorce Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega suggests a tantalizing premise-something noirish, audacious, or at least unconventional. Instead, the seven-episode series delivers a tepid rom-com that never quite fulfills its potential. For a show ostensibly about daring escapades and marital mishaps, it's puzzlingly timid, meandering into a predictable love story that feels more stale than sensational.
