Overview

• The Enforcement Directorate filed a formal prosecution complaint under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act against Harak Singh Rawat, his wife Deepti Rawat, their associates and the Smt. Poorna Devi Memorial Trust.
• Investigators provisionally attached two Sahaspur land parcels measuring 101 bighas in January that have a current market value exceeding Rs 70 crore.
• The ED alleges forged powers of attorney, orchestrated by Birendra Singh Kandari and the late Sushila Rani, were used to facilitate an undervalued sale well below circle rates.
• Prosecutors say Deepti Rawat and Laxmi Singh Rana acquired the plots at suppressed prices and that the land now hosts the Doon Institute of Medical Sciences controlled by the accused’s family trust.
• The case originated from an FIR at Sahaspur Police Station and the ongoing ED probe seeks further asset recovery and potential additional indictments.
