Lalu Prasad Yadav and Family Summoned by ED in Land-for-Jobs Money Laundering Probe

The Enforcement Directorate has called Lalu Prasad Yadav, Rabri Devi, and Tej Pratap Yadav for questioning as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged corruption and asset transfers involving shell companies.

The ED has summoned Lalu Prasad Yadav, Rabri Devi, and Tej Pratap Yadav to appear for questioning in Patna in connection with the land-for-jobs money laundering case.
The investigation alleges that land parcels were transferred to Lalu's family at discounted rates in exchange for railway job appointments during his tenure as Union Railway Minister from 2004-2009.
Shell companies, including AK Infosystems and AB Exports Pvt. Ltd., were allegedly used to funnel proceeds of crime and transfer undervalued assets to Lalu's family members.
The ED claims AK Infosystems, with assets valued at ₹63 crore, was transferred to Rabri Devi and Tejashwi Yadav for just ₹1 lakh, highlighting significant asset valuation discrepancies.
The ED has filed multiple chargesheets under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, naming Lalu Prasad Yadav, Rabri Devi, Tejashwi Yadav, and other family members as accused.
