Among the properties attached by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) of fugitive diamantaire Mehul Choksi, alleged to be the prime conspirator in the Rs. 6,000 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) scam, is a New York apartment that he had transferred to his daughter-in-law free of cost in 2015.
The agency has stated this in its second supplementary charge sheet filed in the bank-fraud case, of which the ED is probing the money-laundering aspect. The property situated in Manhattan, New York had been bought in 2010 by Choksi from one Robert Liubicic for around Rs. 5.72 crores.
