PMLA Case: CBI Court Denies Mukhtar Ansari’s Plea Seeking Clean Chit

A special CBI court has recently declined plea of mafia-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari seeking a clean chit in a Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case.

While delivering the verdict, Judge Anurodh Mishra stated the existence of preliminary evidence against Ansari that subjects him to a legal trial.

Mukhtar Ansari had been implicated in the PMLA case on the 7th of November, 2022. It was alleged he earned crores in an illegal manner from a construction firm, which he has unlawfully seized. Notably, his wife Afsa Ansari and brother-in-law Atif Raja were reportedly affiliated partners.

The court has fixed the framing of charges against Ansari to take place on the 13th of September.
