SDPI National President MK Faizy Arrested in Money Laundering Investigation

MK Faizy, the national president of the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) late Monday night at Delhi airport.
The arrest is part of an ongoing investigation into alleged financial transactions linked to the now-banned Popular Front of India (PFI).
The ED previously raided Faizy’s residence in Kerala on February 28, as part of its probe under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The PFI, banned in 2022 for alleged terror funding and radicalization activities, was previously associated with the SDPI, though the SDPI denies formal ties.
The ED claims PFI used international networks and illegal channels to funnel funds into India for activities undermining national security.
