New Delhi, Sep 6 The Enforcement Directorate, Raipur zonal office, in a search operation in Durg, Chhattisgarh, seized two luxury vehicles (one Porsche Cayenne Coupe and one Mercedes-Benz).
The operations were conducted on August 28, 2025, under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002, in “Re-agent Procurement Scam” involving Shashank Chopda and others.
“During the search operation, two Luxury Vehicles (one Porsche Cayenne Coupe and one Mercedes-Benz) were seized under Section 17(1) of PMLA, 2002, which belong to M/s. Mokshit Corporation, a partnership firm registered in the name of Shashank Chopda and his father Shantilal Chopda,” the ED said.
According to the agency, it initiated an investigation on the basis of an FIR registered by ACB/EOW, Raipur, against Mokshit Corporation and senior officials of Chhattisgarh Medical Services Corporation Limited (CGMSCL) and Directorate of Health Services (DHS) for alleged criminal conspiracy and corruption.
A Chargesheet has also been filed by the ACB/EOW, Raipur, in the said FIR, the agency noted.
