Jaswant Singh, AAP MLA From Punjab's Amargarh, Detained By Probe Agency
The Enforcement Directorate on Monday detained Jaswant Singh Gajjan Majra, a MLA from Punjab's ruling Aam Aadmi Party.
The Enforcement Directorate on Monday detained Punjab lawmaker Jaswant Singh Gajjan Majra. It is unclear why Mr Majra - who was picked up from a public meeting - has been detained.
However, in September last year three premises linked to the Aam Aadmi Party MLA, including his residence, were searched by the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with an alleged Rs 41 crore bank fraud case. The searches yielded "Rs 16.57 lakh in cash, foreign currency (of an unspecified amount), and incriminating bank and property documents", the agency claimed.
