New Delhi, February 21
The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday arrested Surender Singh alias Chiku as part of a money-laundering investigation against the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and its associates, official sources said.
Chiku was produced in Panchkula before a special Prevention of Money Laundering Act court, which sent him to five days’ ED custody, they said.
The central agency had on December 5 last year raided 13 premises belonging to Chiku, a gangster and close ally of Bishnoi and Khalistani terror groups, and some others, in Haryana and Rajasthan.
Chiku, the ED alleged, invested proceeds from illegal mining, liquor and toll operations through his allies.
