New Delhi, Nov 15: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Ocean Seven Buildtech Pvt. Ltd. (OSBPL) Managing Director Swaraj Singh Yadav after conducting searches at nine locations across Delhi-NCR and other regions in a money-laundering probe under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002, an agency statement said on Saturday.

The action stems from allegations that Yadav diverted and laundered funds collected from homebuyers across multiple projects, including those under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY).

The searches on Thursday led to the recovery of Rs 86 lakh in cash, suspected to be proceeds of crime, along with incriminating documents and digital evidence.

According to the ED, Yadav orchestrated a large-scale diversion of homebuyer funds through fraudulent cancellation and resale of units at inflated prices, cash-based premiums collected outside banking channels, and misuse of escrow accounts.

He allegedly routed substantial sums into shell entities and concealed cash proceeds with relatives, the ED statement said.

Investigators also found a pattern of rapid liquidation of assets held personally and through company entities in Gurugram, Maharashtra, and Rajasthan, which the agency believes was intended to secure illicit gains and evade legal scrutiny.

His wife and children have already relocated to the United States, the probe revealed.

The agency said Yadav operated a dual-payment mechanism in the resale of PMAY flats and even in the sale of parking spaces — routing only nominal amounts through banks while collecting the bulk in cash. These activities form part of a wider probe linked to multiple FIRs alleging cheating, forgery, and other predicate offences.

Following his arrest, Yadav was produced before the Court of ASJ-06 at Patiala House Courts on Friday, in compliance with Supreme Court directions.

After detailed submissions from both sides and a pass-over granted to allow him legal assistance, the court sent him to ED custody for 14 days, until November 28.

The agency has been directed to produce him before the court at 2 p.m. on the date of expiry of remand.

The ED said it is pursuing further investigation to trace, freeze, and attach assets acquired from the laundered funds, to ensure recovery and restitution to affected homebuyers.

New Delhi, Nov 15: The National Medical Council (NMC) has cancelled the registrations of three doctors linked to the car blast attack near Delhi’s Red Fort Metro Station, barring them from practising until further orders.

The Delhi blast, which occurred on November 10, killed 12 and injured several others, sending shockwaves across the nation.

The council released the directive in light of the FIR filed under UAPA Sections against Dr Muzaffar Ahmad, Dr Adeel Ahmad Rather, and Dr Muzamil Shakeel, effective immediately.

While Muzamil, Adeel, and another suspect, Dr Shaheen, are currently in the custody of the J&K Police, Muzaffar is thought to have escaped India around August this year.

They are believed to have connections to the Faridabad terror module.

An order from Rajiv Sharma, the NMC Secretary (incharge), mentioned an FIR filed against Ahmad, Rather, and Shakeel in Srinagar on October 19.

It stated that evidence gathered by investigating agencies indicated their involvement in the Red Fort terror blast case.

“Such association or conduct is prima facie inconsistent with the standards of ethical propriety, integrity and public trust expected of members of the medical profession and attracts the provisions of the Indian Medical Council (Professional Conduct, Etiquette and Ethics) Regulations, 2002,” the order read.

The Jammu & Kashmir Medical Council has exercised its authority to cancel the registrations of the three doctors mentioned above, instructing that their names be promptly removed from the Register of Medical Practitioners that is maintained by the council.

“Consequent upon such removal, the said practitioners shall cease to be entitled to practise medicine or to hold any appointment as medical practitioners till further orders,” the order added.

It also mentioned that in view of the notifications dated November 13, 2025 regarding “cancellation of registration of the above-mentioned doctors issued by the Jammu & Kashmir Medical Council, their names be removed from the Indian Medical Register (IMR) / National Medical Register (NMR) with immediate effect.”

It has been reported, though not yet confirmed, that a similar directive has been issued concerning Dr Shaheen Saeed, who was listed with the Uttar Pradesh Medical Council, and she has also been promptly removed from the IMR/NMR.

Mumbai: Bangur Nagar Police have arrested two men from Mumbai’s Goregaon West for stealing a mobile phone that an autorickshaw driver had strapped to his steering wheel for navigation. The accused, Sohail Khan (26) and Sandeep Mohite (36), both residents of the Bhagat Singh Nagar slum, were taken into custody after the midnight theft on November 11. Police said both men are currently unemployed.

The incident occurred around 12.30 am on Link Road near the slum colony. the complainant, 44-year-old rickshaw driver Manoj Sav, was seated in his vehicle waiting for passengers when the duo swiftly snatched his phone, worth Rs 6,000. The device had been secured to the steering using a rubber band. Sav realised the theft only later and later lodged a complaint at Bangur Nagar Police Station.

During the investigation, police first traced and arrested Sohail Khan. His interrogation led officers to the second accused, Mohite. Based on their statements, police recovered two stolen mobile phones worth Rs 11,000, indicating that the men had likely committed multiple thefts in the area.

Further checks revealed an extensive criminal history for Mohite. Police records showed he has 22 previous cases registered across Bangur Nagar, Goregaon and Kasturba Marg police stations. Due to his repeated involvement in theft and related offences, Mohite had previously been externed from city limits by DCP Sandeep Jadhav. Khan, too, has two prior cases registered against him at Goregaon and Bangur Nagar.

Police officials said the arrests have helped crack multiple theft incidents reported recently and added that further investigation is underway to determine whether the duo were involved in additional crimes.
