ED summons Anil Ambani in Rs 3,000-crore loan fraud case
A week after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) carried out searches at over 35 locations in Mumbai linked to Anil Ambani, the central probe agency issued summons to the industrialist as part of a money laundering probe into an alleged Rs 3,000 crore bank loan fraud involving companies of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group. The ED is investigating allegations of illegal diversion of loans worth around Rs 3,000 crore, disbursed by Yes Bank to the group's companies between 2017 and 2019. It is also examining whether there was a quid pro quo involved in the loan — specifically, if bribes were paid to bank officials, including Yes Bank promoters. The central agency's probe has found alleged violations in Yes Bank's loan approvals to the group's companies, including backdated credit approval memorandums and proposals for investments made without any due diligence or credit analysis — violations of the bank's credit policy, among other issues.
