Hasan Ali’s associate sent to ED custody till March 30 (Lead)
March 24th, 2011 - 8:17 pm ICT by IANSMumbai, March 24 (IANS) A Mumbai sessions court Thursday remanded Kolkata-based businessman Kashinath Tapuriah to the custody of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) till March 30 for his alleged links with Hasan Ali Khan, said to the India’s biggest tax evader.
According to ED sources, Tapuriah, 74, was arrested here by the ED earlier Thursday after he was questioned for three days.
“Mr. Tapuria has been sent to the custodial remand of the ED till March 30 for his alleged role in assisting Mr. Khan in money laundering,” Tapuriah’s lawyer Abad Ponda told IANS.
Tapuriah is alleged to have played a major role in the transfer of money to a Swiss bank via Khan’s investments in 14 of his companies.
Tapuria’s Kolkata residence and office were searched by the ED earlier this month as his name had cropped up in the documents recovered from Khan’s Pune residence.
Khan’s custodial remand of the ED ends Thursday.
