Mumbai: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) late Friday arrested Jet Airways founder Naresh Goyal in a money-laundering case linked to a Rs 539-crore Canara Bank loan fraud being probed by the CBI.
He was brought from Delhi to Mumbai on Friday and questioned for hours before he was placed under arrest as he was not cooperating in the investigation, sources said.
The bank had, in its complaint, said that as Goyal companies defaulted on loans, a forensic audit was carried out of all transactions and documentations processed between April 1, 2011, and June 19, 2019, which pointed out diversion and siphoning of funds.
