Ranchi, August 23

The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday conducted multiple searches on premises linked to Jharkhand Finance Minister Rameshwar Oraon’s son Rohit Oraon and some others as part of a money-laundering investigation linked to an alleged liquor scam in the state, official sources said.

As many as 34 premises in state capital Ranchi, Dumka, Deoghar and Godda districts are being covered by the officials of the central probe agency along with a security cover of the CRPF.

The premises of the senior Oraon are being covered as the father and son live at the same location.

The investigation is being conducted under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, they said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
