Mumbai PMLA Court Discharges Chhagan Bhujbal in Maharashtra Sadan Scam Case

A special PMLA court in Mumbai discharged senior NCP leader and former Maharashtra PWD Minister Chhagan Bhujbal, along with his son and nephew, in the Maharashtra Sadan scam case filed by the Enforcement Directorate. 

The court noted that Bhujbal had already been discharged in the related Anti-Corruption Bureau case.

His counsel stated that the absence of prima facie evidence of money laundering weighed with the court. 

The ED case stemmed from alleged irregularities in awarding construction contracts during Bhujbal’s tenure as PWD Minister.
