Overview

  • Suresh Raina’s Rs 6.64 crore in mutual funds and Shikhar Dhawan’s Rs 4.5 crore property are specified in the attachment order.
  • Investigators allege the cricketers knowingly promoted 1xBet via foreign intermediaries with endorsement payments routed to mask their origin.
  • Searches at four payment gateways led to the freezing of over Rs 4 crore and more than 60 linked bank accounts, with merchants flagged for KYC lapses.
  • The probe cites over 6,000 mule accounts and indicates laundering exceeding Rs 1,000 crore connected to surrogate brands such as 1xBat and 1xBat Sporting Lines.
  • The case stems from multiple police FIRs, other celebrities have been questioned, and the ED says its investigation is continuing.
