The Enforcement Directorate conducted searches at five sites linked to the Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission recruitment case and confirmed the arrest of a principal suspect.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) carried out coordinated searches at five locations that are alleged to be connected with a recruitment scam involving the Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission (CGPSC). Officials arrived at the sites early on Tuesday, seizing documents and electronic devices as part of a broader money‑laundering probe.
During the operation, the agency announced that a key suspect in the case was taken into custody. The individual, identified as a senior functionary linked to the alleged manipulation of CGPSC selection processes, was arrested at a residence in the state capital.
The ED said the arrests and raids are part of an ongoing investigation aimed at uncovering the flow of illicit funds and the network behind the alleged scam. Authorities have not disclosed further details about the evidence collected, but they indicated that additional actions may follow as the probe progresses.
