NEW DELHI: In what may spell further trouble for Ratul Puri, investigative agencies are probing the alleged receipt of \u201cproceeds of crime\u201d by Puri arising from the VVIP chopper scandal from another key European middleman. <\/p>\n
Probe agencies have found alleged transfer of \u201cproceeds of crime\u201d from Carlo Gerosa — one of the three middlemen besides Guido Haschke and Christian Michel James — to Puri\u2019s companies, sources in the know told ET. This may further compound trouble for Puri because probe agencies have also found that Christian Michel James paid nearly one million dollar for \u201cpurchases\u201d made by Puri in Dubai. <\/p>\n
The said payment(s) were allegedly made by Michel through his Dubai-based company Global Services FZE, sources cited above told ET. Puri is the nephew of Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath. The Enforcement Directorate (ED), last month, had verbally told a local court that Puri had received funds from \u201cboth the chains of money laundering\u201d. ET has found out that the \u201cother chain\u201d involves Carlo Valentino Ferdinando Gerosa (72), an Italian and Swiss national. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
