ED Raids Target Former AIADMK Minister in Money Laundering Probe

The Enforcement Directorate is raiding locations in Chennai connected to former AIADMK minister R Vaithilingam over a money laundering case. This follows the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption's recent case registration against Vaithilingam and his son for alleged corruption. Raids continue as details unfold.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) initiated searches at multiple sites in Chennai, focusing on former AIADMK minister and current MLA R Vaithilingam, amidst allegations of money laundering.

This operational move aligns with last month's actions by the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC), which filed a case against Vaithilingam and his elder son, V Prabhu, for purported corrupt practices.

The searches are in progress, with authorities anticipating more details as the investigation unfolds, according to ANI reports.
