In an intense development, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has taken relentless initiative to freeze the assets linked to the promoter of the Mahadev app. This move follows massive searches conducted in multiple cities Mumbai, Kolkata, and Bhopal. Notedly, this unfolding situation is the impending issuance of summons by the ED to celebrities, featuring well-known names like Sunny Leone , Tiger Shroff , Atif Aslam , and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. Their involvement is expected to be investigated in relation to this case.
The ED’s asset freeze primarily concerns the substantial assets worth Rs 417 crore that are associated with Sourabh Chandrakar, the individual behind the Mahadev online betting app. What raises the eyebrows is the revelation by ED investigators that Sourabh Chandrasekhar purportedly allocated astonishing amount of Rs.200 crore towards his own wedding festivities held in the UAE in February. This extravagant celebration was orchestrated with the assistance of an event management company.
