ED raids residence of Jyotipriya Mallick in the ration distribution corruption case | Watch video

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids at the residence of former Food Minister Jyotipriya Mallick in Salt Lake, Kolkata, as part of their ongoing investigation into a corruption case related to ration distribution. The ED's team, led by an investigating officer, comprising 8-9 officers, entered the minister's residence, where they promptly confiscated the phones of everyone present.

Simultaneously, raids were carried out at the home of Amit Dey, who had served as an assistant to Jyotipriya Mallick during his tenure as food Minister. This coordinated operation by the central agency targeted a total of eight locations.

The ED's early morning raid on Jyotipriya Mallick's residence in BC Block, Salt Lake, has raised questions about the extent of his involvement in the ongoing corruption case. The agency's investigation has been unraveling sensational information, particularly following the arrest of Bakibur Rahman, described as 'close to the minister,' in connection with the same ration distribution corruption case. Rahman's arrest has led to the discovery of significant assets, including properties abroad, prompting concerns about the influence and reach of individuals connected to the case. All eyes are now on the ED's ongoing investigation as it seeks to determine the extent of influence and involvement in the alleged corruption.
