BMW Car Seized From Hemant Soren's Delhi Residence Allegedly Given by Dhiraj Sahu

After an Enforcement Directorate (ED) probe into the former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren case, it was revealed that the BMW car seized from Soren's New Delhi residence on January 29 was gifted by Congress Rajya Sabha MP Dheeraj Sahu. The ED probe also revealed that the car was registered at Sahu's residence.

Last year, in December, the Income Tax (IT) department seized around Rs 350 crore cash from Dhiraj Sahu's property. Now, the ED has issued a summons to Sahu in connection with the Hemant Soren case. The ED seized the luxury car as part of the ongoing probe into a money laundering case linked to an alleged land scam.
