The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday conducted raids at six locations, including the premises of former Congress MLA Baba Siddique, in connection with a money laundering case, officials said.
"We have carried out raids at several locations in Mumbai in connection with the ongoing probe into the slum development project," an ED official told IANS.
The agency officials raided the premises of Siddique and a builder in connection with the money laundering case, he added.
The agency's action comes after it registered a case against Siddique and others under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) on the basis of an FIR filed by the Mumbai Police in connection with alleged financial irregularities in the redevelopment of a slum area in suburban Bandra.
