Separate teams from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids across multiple locations in Calcutta and the districts on Saturday as part of their investigation into a purported scam involving land acquisition for projects and the deceiving of investors through enticing offers. In Calcutta, separate teams visited two addresses of a city-based businessman — including his office on Jawaharlal Nehru Road and his house in Ballygunge. We will not be able to speak about the case in detail,” a senior ED official said, refusing to divulge anything further about the raids. Teams started visiting the locations from early Saturday, with central forces in tow. Sources said officials sought documents related to the procurement of land parcels in different locations from those associated with theprojects.
