Bombay HC quashes money laundering case against Jet Airways founder, wife
In a huge relief for former Jet Airways Chairman Naresh Goyal and his wife Anita Goyal, the Bombay High Court on Thursday quashed the Enforcement Directorate (ED)’s case of money laundering against the couple.
The order by a division bench comprising Justices Revati Mohite-Dere and Prithviraj Chavan came in a plea filed by the couple seeking to quash the ED’s ECIR lodged against them under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
The judges quashed the ED’s ECIR (February 20, 2020), all the investigations and other proceedings or actions arising out of it on grounds that it was “illegal and contrary to the law”.
