Overview

  • CBI teams reached Ambani’s Seawind residence in Cuffe Parade around 7 a.m., with about seven to eight officials conducting the search while the family remained at home.

  • The Enforcement Directorate broadened its inquiry earlier this month, questioning Anil Ambani and summoning senior aides Amitabh Jhunjhunwala and Sateesh Seth under the PMLA.
  • At least six summons have been issued so far as part of the money-laundering investigation into alleged loan diversion across group entities.
  • Investigators are scrutinizing whether bank loans were routed through shell entities and misused, following July searches across more than 35 locations in Mumbai and Delhi that yielded documents and digital records.
