The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has intensified its investigation into former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren by arresting multiple individuals linked to an alleged money laundering and land scam case. Among those arrested are JMM leader Antu Tirkey, Priyaranjan Sahay, real estate trader Vipin Singh, and Irshad, and they were brought to the ED office in Ranchi. Additionally, Afsar Ali, who was already in custody at Birsa Munda central jail for a related case, was arrested again, bringing the total recent arrests to eight. The arrests are part of a broader inquiry into corruption allegations against Soren, which has become a significant political issue in Jharkhand, with the opposition BJP needing to justify the actions taken against the tribal leader.
