NEW DELHI: ED Tuesday arrested former Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) commissioner GT Dinesh Kumar in a money laundering case related to illegal allotment of plots . Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah and his wife are among others facing investigation in the case. He was produced before the special court on Wednesday and remanded in ED custody for nine days.
On the day of Dinesh's arrest, ED carried out searches at his residence in Bengaluru and took him to its zonal office for questioning, where it arrested him late evening.
