Vivo India's interim CEO, CFO, and consultant have been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on charges of money laundering. They have been remanded to custody for three days. The arrests were made due to their alleged involvement in acquiring proceeds of crime amounting to ₹20,241 crore. The executives are accused of not cooperating with authorities. This comes after the arrest of four industry executives in October, including a Chinese national, for alleged wrongdoings by the Chinese smartphone maker in India. The ED had raided Vivo India last year for its involvement in a money-laundering racket.
