It goes without saying that the investigating agency shall ensure Covid-19 safety protocols while the accused is in its custody."According to the probe agency, Amrender Dhari Singh is stated to be the senior vice president of a firm involved in the case, identified as Jyoti Trading Corporation. He is involved in the export and import of fertilizers since 90s. Singh imports fertilizers for private companies and exporting them to the Middle East and other countries.Advocate Amit Mahajan, Standing Counsel for central government and Special Public Prosecutor Nitesh Rana of ED stated that Money was paid through hawala operators and intermediaries. Group companies of co-accused Rajeev Saxena, who is an accused in Augusta Westland Case also, were used for receipt of commission from supplier of fertilizers and other products to IFFCO and Indian Potash Limited (IPL).During the commission of the crime, sham consultancy agreements were made as also fake invoices for consultancy services, without providing any such services and thus commission was received from group companies of Rajeev Saxena without any genuine transaction and that money was actually illegal commission generated out of import of fertilizers and raw material, ED Lawyers said.ED further added that the accused (Rajya Sabha MP, AD Singh) acted as an intermediary along with other accused of channelising the ill-gotten money through different firms and companies.According to the ED, in this manner, approximately Rs 685 crores were received in the bank accounts of the group companies and individual accounts of Rajeev Saxena and other accused including the present accused AD Singh.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
