Telugu actor Navdeep was called by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on October 10th for questioning in connection to his alleged involvement in money laundering and drug peddling. He arrived at the ED in Hyderabad at 10 a.m. and was grilled for nearly eight hours by the ED.
The Telangana State Anti-Narcotics Bureau (TSNAB) had reportedly passed on information to the ED after their investigation and Navdeep was called in for questioning.
Navdeep appeared before the ED on Tuesday with the statements of his bank accounts, his mobile phones and other documents, as the ED reportedly possesses evidence of bank transactions between the Nigerians and Navdeep.
ED officials asked him to submit all the details of his personal bank accounts and are also investigating the business transactions related to his pub. The focus of ED’s questioning was reportedly about three Nigerians who were on their radar for drug smuggling. In September, TSNAB had arrested some Nigerians in Bengaluru for selling drugs in Gudimalkapur.
Post their arrest, TSNAB had also interrogated Navdeep on September 23rd as they found a link between the Nigerians and Navdeep. They questioned Navdeep about calls and WhatsApp message exchanges between him and a drug peddler. Navdeep had then approached the Telangana High Court for anticipatory bail.
