Sanjay Raut finaly get bail after 100 days In Patra Chawl Case

On Wednesday, November 9, Mumbai’s PMLA court granted bail to Shiv Sena leader and MP Sanjay Raut. He was in jail for 100 days in the Patra Chawl land scam case. His close aide Nitin Raut also received bail.
The ED had arrested Raut on August 1 this year in a money laundering case connected to Goregaon’s Patra Chawl redevelopment project. He is presently in judicial custody in Arthur Road prison.
ED alleged that he had received Rs1.06 crore from his co-accused Pravin Raut. The amount it alleges is a part of the ‘proceeds of crime’ (POC) of Rs112 crore that Pravin Raut received from the illegal sale of Floor Space Index (FSI) in the project. Pravin Raut was one of the directors of the firm that had taken up the project that never saw the light of day.
Raut said he is only the “victim of political change of power” and thereby “abuse of criminal machinery” at the hands of the ruling party.
The investigating agency had opposed the bail plea contending that the case was not registered “out of malice or vendetta” and that he is fully involved in the offence of money laundering.
The scam pertains to alleged financial irregularities in the redevelopment of the Patra Chawl and related financial transactions involving Raut, his wife and associates. Patra Chawl is spread over 47 acres and houses 672 tenant families.
In 2008, the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA), a government agency, assigned a redevelopment contract for the Chawl to Guru Ashish Construction Private Limited (GACPL), a sister company of the Housing Development and Infrastructure Ltd (HDIL). The GACPL was supposed to build 672 flats for the tenants and also give some flats to MHADA. It was free to sell the remaining land to private developers.
But the tenants did not get a single flat in the last 14 years as the company did not redevelop the Patra Chawl and sold land parcels and FSI to other builders for Rs1,034 crore, as per the ED.
ED’s allegations against Pravin Raut are of laundering Rs 112 crore, while Sanjay Raut had allegedly received over Rs 3 crore.
