The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is conducting searches at multiple locations here in connection with the case against arrested Delhi Minister Satyendar Jain under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

Sources said raids are being conducted at nearly 10 residential and official premises linked to several property dealers and other business entities.   

The 57-year-old Jain was arrested by the ED on May 30 under the criminal Sections of the PMLA and is in judicial custody at present.

Jain, a minister without portfolio in the AAP Government in Delhi, is being probed by the agency under the PMLA on charges of alleged hawala dealings.
