Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials on Friday arrested developer Yusuf Lakdawala in connection with the land grab case of Khandala. Lakdawala was grilled by the ED sleuths on Thursday for several hours after which he was placed under arrest.
Lakdawala was arrested on a lookout notice issued by Mumbai Economic Offences Wing (EOW) at Ahmedabad airport while he was flying to London for treatment in April 2019.
Lakdawala and his associate, Mohan R Nair, were booked on the complaint of Jitendra Badgujar, sub-registrar of Maval taluka, for allegedly usurping 4.38 acres of a plot of land, belonging to an erstwhile Hyderabad Nawab, in Khandala. Lakdawala was later granted bail in the said case.
