ED TIGHTENS JHARKHAND NOOSE AROUND MINING SECRETARY

Casting its net far and wide in Pooja Singhal corruption case, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on May 24 conducted raids in seven places in Bihar and Jharkhand. Among the places raided six are in Jharkhand and one in Bihar.

The ED grilled District Mining Officer of Sahibganj Vibhooti Kumar and Ranchi DMO Sanjiv Kumar, which revealed many secretes on the case. Both officials were questioned for 11 hours and were put facing each other by the investigators. A top ED official, part of the investigation, on condition of anonymity told The Daily Guardian Review that during the course of interrogation both DMOs fought with each other when they were asked about working for personal benefit of Pooja.
