New Delhi, Mar 12 () Assets worth over Rs 36 crore of a Madhya Pradesh-based company have been attached by the ED in connection with a coal blocks allocation scam case, the agency said on Tuesday.
It said a provisional order for attachment of properties like land, plant, machinery, office and factory buildings of Kamal Sponge and Steel Power Ltd (KSSPL), located in Rajasthan’s Jaipur and Satna in Madhya Pradesh, and its director Pawan Kumar Ahluwalia was issued by it on Monday under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
The agency said its probe had found that the company “had got the coal block allotted (to it) by mis-representing its net worth and production capacity and also by not submitting the requisite documents in order to embellish the claim for allocation of the Thesgora-B/Rudrapuri coal block by the ministry of coal to it”.
