NEW DELHI: The Income Tax Department on Thursday conducted searches at multiple locations in Delhi and Pune in connection with a tax-evasion probe linked to the multi-crore AgustaWestland VVIP choppers case, officials said.
They said the raids were being conducted against an accused named in the case and his relative and a prominent Pune-based industrialist.
About 30 premises were raided by tax department sleuths in coordination with local police in the two cities, they said.
The searches against the two, they said, are a result of certain disclosures made by Rajiv Saxena, an accused arrested in the VVIP choppers scam. (AGENCIES)
