Clean chit to Bhujbal in Maha Sadan case
Hindustan Times Pune
|January 24, 2026
A special court on Friday discharged NCP minister Chhagan Bhujbal in an alleged money laundering case linked to financial irregularities in the construction of Maharashtra Sadan in New Delhi and a housing project in Navi Mumbai.
Special judge Satyanarayan Navander said the prosecution under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) could not proceed in the absence of a subsisting “predicate offence”, which it said is “akin to a tree without roots”.
“The prosecution under PMLA, without existence of the proceeds of crime related to the predicate offence, is akin to a tree without roots, devoid of legal sustenance and incapable of surviving judicial scrutiny,” the court held.
