The Enforcement Directorate has seized fifteen properties in Gujarat and Maharashtra, alleging they belong to a former Gujarat Labour Development Corporation official.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has attached fifteen properties spread across Gujarat and Maharashtra, stating that they are linked to a former official of the Gujarat Labour Development Corporation (GLDC). The action was taken under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act as part of a broader investigation into alleged financial irregularities.
According to the agency, the seized assets comprise both residential and commercial premises located in various parts of the two states. The ED has not disclosed the exact locations or the market value of the properties.
The former GLDC official has not been publicly identified, and no arrest details have been released. The department described the attachment as a precautionary measure to prevent the disposal of assets while the probe continues.
This step reflects the ED's ongoing focus on money‑laundering cases involving public‑sector officials and underscores its intent to secure potentially illicit wealth pending further legal proceedings.
