The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday said it has seized Rs 6.3 crore in cash during fresh searches conducted against " angadias " and "hawala" operators in Mumbai and Surat in connection with the Torres Jewellery money-laundering case. The federal probe agency said in a statement that the raids were carried out at four premises by its Mumbai zonal office on Friday. #Operation Sindoor India-Pakistan Clash Live Updates| Pak moving troops to border areas? All that's happening Why India chose to abstain instead of 'No Vote' against IMF billion-dollar funding to Pakistan How Pak's jihadi general Munir became trapped in his own vice The action pertains to the money-laundering case against Platinum Hern Private Limited that operated under the brand name Torres Jewellery and is alleged to have cheated its customers after collecting a "huge" amount of cash from them in lieu of the sale of Moissanite diamonds and other jewellery. The ED case stems from a police FIR filed in Navi Mumbai. "Instead of using the said cash for its legitimate business purposes, it has been routed through hawala operators and later, converted into USDT cryptocurrency," the ED said. Alpesh Khara, an alleged "hawala" operator and a "key" person in the case, facilitated the collection of cash from Torres showrooms across Mumbai on the instructions of foreign nationals Oleksandr Zapichenko alias Alex and Olena Stoian (two among the many alleged masterminds of the fraud), the agency claimed.

Khara was one of the franchise owners of a known "angadia" entity that has branches across the country and a "huge" amount of cash has exchanged hands through those branches as well as various "hawala" operators, the ED alleged.

The ED had conducted searches in connection with the case in January and frozen bank deposits of Rs 21.75 crore.
