The Enforcement Directorate arrested Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui, chairman of Al Falah University, for money laundering involving false accreditation claims that earned the university Rs 415 crore. A Delhi court granted him 13 days' custody as the probe continues.
The three cases were registered against Hamood Siddiqui in 2000 under Section 420 (cheating) of the Indian Penal Code and other relevant legal provisions.
Killed just days before a planned capture deadline, Madvi Hidma had long evaded agencies with his deep forest networks, multi-layer security ring and leadership of PLGA Battalion No 1, linked to India’s deadliest Naxal attacks.
