"I will show that a prima facie case of money laundering is made out... The attachment of properties took place in November 2023. Until then, the accused were enjoying the proceeds of crime," additional solicitor general SV Raju, appearing for the ED, told the Rouse Avenue court of special judge Vishal Gogne. Raju was accompanied by special counsel Zoheb Hossain and special public prosecutor N K Matta.
