NEW DELHI: The ED has attached assets worth Rs 1.03 crore belonging to businessman Zahoor Ahmmad Watali in a money laundering case related to funding of terror organizations in Jammu and Kashmir, officials said on Monday.
They said the agency has issued a provisional order for attachment of assets of Watali under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) case is based on a charge sheet filed by the NIA as part of its probe against Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Saeed.
Official sources, quoting the ED order, said J&K-based Watali “has been found to be involved in fund raising and as a financial conduit of Hurriyat leaders”. (AGENCIES)
