The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday carried out searches in multiple states as part of its probe into the Mahadev online betting app case, news agency PTI reported. The raids included the premises of EaseMyTrip founder and chairman Nishant Pitti. Citing unnamed officials, the report added that the searches were held in Delhi, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, Indore, Jaipur, Chennai, and Sambalpur. The ED is investigating alleged money laundering linked to the Mahadev app, which is said to have been used for illegal betting activities. The Mahadev app is reported to have provided platforms for creating user accounts, enrolling new users, and handling funds through fake bank accounts. The ED has earlier claimed that the app’s promoters, Sourabh Chandrakar and Ravi Uppal, are from Chhattisgarh. The agency has also said that many senior politicians and government officers from Chhattisgarh may be involved in the operation and money transfers connected to the app. This is not the first time the ED has conducted raids in this case. Earlier searches were also held at various locations as part of the ongoing investigation.
