Published

Hemant Soren posted a Hindi poem titled “It’s a break” on X following his arrest. The lines of the poem saiod, life is a big battle and I have and will continue to fight every moment without asking for a compromise.

Shortly after Hemant Soren resigned as Jharkhand’s chief minister, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) detained him on allegations of money laundering. Soren is the leader of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM). This comes after more than seven hours of interrogation regarding alleged charges of money laundering in connection with a land fraud case.

Soren submitted his resignation to Governor CP Radhakrishnan at the Raj Bhavan just before being imprisoned, and he was then brought to the ED headquarters for additional procedures. According to sources, the 48-year-old leader was placed under detention in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) due to his evasive statements during questioning.

It is expected that the ED would bring Soren before a special PMLA court in order to request remand for questioning while he is in custody. After questioning Soren on January 20, the agency asked him 15 more questions during the second session of interrogation.

The former Jharkhand CM was shown typed statements that had been submitted to the agency before being placed under custody, and his signature was required on these records. However, it is still not clear if he signed them.

Soren is accused of money laundering due to his suspected connections to the land mafia and his unlawful possession of specific real estate. The probe is connected to a big scheme concerning the mafia’s unlawful land ownership transfer in Jharkhand.

In relation to the case, the ED has detained 14 people, including IAS officer Chhavi Ranjan, from the 2011 batch who was previously the deputy commissioner of Ranchi and the director of the state’s Social Welfare Department. Jharkhand Land Revenue Department’s employee Bhanu Prasad, has also been taken into custody by the organisation in relation to this case.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal recieved threating messages today, May 20, which were witten on a poster. These posters were found at two metro stations of Delhi and inside the metro coaches.

Images of the statements appeared on social media, with at least two of them appearing on signboards carrying the names of the Patel Nagar and Rajiv Chowk metro stations, and several of them sticked on the walls of metro stations. However, it is yet to confirm that who did this.

According to a senior police officer, the incident has been brought to their attention and an inquiry has been started.

Following the appearance of threatening graffiti within the metro stations of Rajiv Chowk and Patel Nagar in the nation’s capital, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP were preparing an attack on Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

AAP MP Sanjay Singh claimed claimed that the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) was the hub of the purported plot to target Arvind Kejriwal.

The BJP has been in a panic since Arvind Kejriwal’s release from jail. Right now, the BJP is preparing to strike Arvind Kejriwal with deadly intent. The prime minister’s office is the direct source of this plot. At the Metro stations in Rajiv Chowk and Patel Nagar, an attack threat against Kejriwal ji has been inscribed, according to Sanjay Singh’s statement today.

There have also reportedly been threatening messages scrawled inside metro trains.

AAP leader Atishi said the BJP is afraid of losing the next Lok Sabha elections in Delhi.  She claimed Arvind Kejriwal was targeted by the BJP through Swati Maliwal.

Meanwhile, the MLAs of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has a letter sent to the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Monday and demanded prompt and severe action in response to graffiti that had appeared on the Rajiv Chowk and Patel Nagar stations of the Delhi Metro.

Social media users have also posted pictures of the graffiti. Security guards are stationed 24/7 and these stations are covered by CCTV. Why don’t the cops take any action? The Cyber Cell is where? This indicates that the BJP is behind this, she claimed.

In light of the Lok Sabha elections, Kejriwal was granted interim relief by the Supreme Court earlier this month. On March 21, Kejriwal was taken into custody in relation to his purported involvement in the Delhi excise policy case.
