The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday said it has arrested Mohammed Sadeeque alias Sadik Khan, the former president of the Alfurkan Educational Trust (AET) in Bikaner.
The arrest is for his alleged involvement in money laundering arising from the systematic diversion of public donations, extensive cash-based criminal activities, suspicious foreign associations, and conduct indicative of radicalisation and involvement in unlawful networks.
He was later produced before a special PMLA court in Jaipur. The ED sought his custodial remand, which was approved by the court. Officials stated that they were granted three days of custodial remand for the accused.
