In a groundbreaking move, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Hemant Soren, former Jharkhand Chief Minister, under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). This arrest follows a complex operation by the federal agency, attempting to apprehend the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) leader in Delhi. Despite teams being deployed at his residence and the airport, Soren managed to evade authorities and reach Ranchi by road on Tuesday. The ED alleges that Soren is a key beneficiary in an alleged land scam in Ranchi, where a network of brokers and businessmen falsified records in registrar offices to create fake deeds of landed parcels, subsequently selling them.
