The driver's bank account received deposits worth Rs 331.36 crore between August 19, 2024, and April 16, 2025, according to ED officials. This was a classic case of a "mule" account being used to pump dirty money. A mule account is used to funnel illicit funds generated from financial crimes, and the actual owner is not its user. Such accounts are created using fake or hired KYC, where someone lends their account in lieu of a commission. The ED officials stumbled upon the Rapido bike driver while investigating the 1xbet online betting-linked money-laundering case.

Even before he joined Lyft's board in 2021, David Risher had taken hundreds of trips as a passenger so he felt like he knew a lot about the ride-hailing service. But he never expected to be thrust into the driver's seat at a time when Lyft was running like a jalopy. I really was gobsmacked, Risher said during an interview with The Associated Press as he recalled being recently asked to replace Lyft co-founder Logan Green as CEO.
