Enforcement Directorate raids homes of TMC MP Nadimul Haque and six other sites

On Monday, the Enforcement Directorate executed search operations at the residence of Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha MP Nadimul Haque and at six additional sites located in Delhi, West Bengal and Jharkhand. The agency's investigation focuses on alleged money-laundering schemes associated with the Urdu newspaper Akhbar-E-Mashriq, which is also accused of disseminating content that may promote communal tension. Authorities are probing unaccounted cash flows and financing from questionable origins linked to the publication.

The coordinated raids spanned multiple states, reflecting the breadth of the probe. While the searches were completed, officials did not disclose any immediate arrests or seizures. The case underscores ongoing scrutiny of political figures and media outlets for financial irregularities.
