Meat exporter Moin Qureshi ED custody extended by 4 days

A Delhi court on Thursday extended by four days the Enforcement Directorate's custody of Meat exporter Moin Qureshi in a money laundering case. Qureshi was arrested on August 25 after he was called for questioning in the case.

The meat exporter has been arrested under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

Qureshi has been questioned multiple times in the past by the agency which is probing him after it had registered two FIRs under the PMLA.

In the latest FIR against him this year, former CBI Director A P Singh has also been named.

The earlier PMLA case against Qureshi was booked by the ED in 2015, based on an Income Tax prosecution complaint.

The meat exporter is facing investigation by the I-T department and the CBI for alleged tax evasion, money laundering and corruption among others.
