The Enforcement Directorate has arrested former Rajasthan MLA Baljit Yadav on money laundering charges linked to an alleged funds embezzlement case, official sources said on Wednesday.

The former independent legislator from the Behror Assembly seat was taken into custody under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) on Tuesday, they said.

The case is related to alleged embezzlement of MLA funds in the guise of supply of sports equipment to schools, according to ED officials.

The federal agency had conducted searches against Yadav in January last year.
