Enforcement Directorate questioned Madhya Pradesh Professional Examination Board's (MPPEB) former Exam Controller Pankaj Trivedi for near five-and-a-half hours today, to know investments made by him in movable and immovable assets.
A senior ED officer said that Trivedi was brought here amidst tight security from the Bhopal Central Jail, where he was lodged under judicial custody, to the ED's sub-zonal office here for interrogation.
Trivedi was questioned from 12.30 pm to 6 pm to record his statement and to find out investments made by him in movable and immovable assets.
Besides Trivedi, the ED has registered cases against more than ten people allegedly involved in the MPPEB scam involving admission tests and recruitment examinations under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The official said that another official called Nitin Mohindra who was arrested in connection with the MPPEB scam would be brought to the ED office for questioning tomorrow.
