The Enforcement Directorate on Monday claimed to have recovered a huge amount of “unaccounted” cash during searches at the premises of a domestic help allegedly linked to the secretary of Jharkhand minister Alamgir Alam, official sources said.
Videos and photos shared by the sources showed officials of the central probe agency taking out wads of currency notes from large bags in a room located in a building at Gadikhana Chowk.
Some central force security personnel were also seen.
A domestic help of Jharkhand Rural Development Minister Alam’s personal secretary Sanjiv Lal is alleged to be residing at this location.
When contacted by PTI, Alam said, “I have no official information regarding this so far.”
“I have been watching TV and it says the premises are linked to the official PS (private secretary) provided to me by the government,” he added.
