ED fills trucks with cash, found 50 Crores in Arpita Mukherjee’s apartment

50 crores have been taken back in total from Arpita Mukherjee’s two apartments. All of this cash was in the form of 500 and 2,000 dollar bills. According to reports, cash was discovered in Arpita’s Belgharia apartment’s bathroom as well.

Arpita Mukherjee, who is rumoured to be a close friend of West Bengal minister Partha Chatterjee, had two apartments raided by the enforcement directorate, and they discovered a large quantity of cash totalling 50 crore, in addition to gold, dollars, and other papers. The recoveries are related to the fraud involving teacher appointments. Model and actress Arpita Mukherjee, who has worked in the Bengali and Odia cinema industries, is currently being held by the ED. She is thought to have told the detectives that Partha Chatterjee had used his apartments as a makeshift bank. The recovered funds have already been disassociated from the Trinamool.

Two of her apartments were searched by the ED, one in South Kolkata and the other close to Kolkata in Belgharia.

Here is the list of things that the ED discovered during the initial raid.

  • 70 Lakhs IN GOLD
  • 50 lakhs in dollars
  • ₹21 crore in currency notes
  • 20 cell phones

On Wednesday, the ED recovered the things listed below during the second raid:

  • ₹28 crore
  • 5 kg of gold, including gold bars

According to accounts, during the second raid, authorities also discovered cash concealed in the restroom. After questioning Arpita Mukherjee, with whom she is supposedly collaborating, ED officers learned about her Belgharia apartment. Money was counted from Wednesday at around 6 p.m. until Thursday at 4 a.m. The cash was loaded into trucks in the morning, and large machines were brought in to count the notes.
