The Income Tax raid at the premises of Jharkhand Chief Minister Shibu Soren's private secretary M L Pal residence and others continued for the second day today with the department claiming that it has unearthed more documents which would strengthen the disproportionate assets case against Madhu Koda.
The Income Tax department has made cash seizure totalling Rs 70 lakh during searches at the premises of the alleged associates of former Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda in connection with the money laundering scam.
Raids have been initiated in different places of Jharkhand and Kolkata. There is a flat of M L Pal in the southern fringe of the city where the IT sleuths raided and sealed the flat.
"As we are digging deeper, we are getting many important documents which will strengthen our evidence into the illegal investments and hawala transactions involving former chief minister Madhu Koda," a top IT official told PTI.
"The raids are a sequence to the October 31 searches involving Koda and his associates. The current raids have covered some more people," he said.
"Raids at some places have concluded while some will be concluded tonight. But the rest, including Pal's, will take one or two more days.
