The Enforcement Directorate has filed a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) over "suspicious transactions" worth Rs 15 crore in connection with the death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput.
The case was filed after the probe agency took cognisance of a FIR (first information report) by Bihar Police, which is inquiring into how the money transferred from the actor's bank account was used.
A police team visited several banks and looked into transactions and investments of two companies set up by Mr Rajput along with his girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty and her brother. The investigation focusses on whether the investments were legal.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Police are conducting a detailed investigation of their own - into angles like professional rivalry and unfair treatment that caused the actor to be side-lined in Bollywood. Cops in Mumbai have also looked into his finances.
