Former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh, who is alleged in a money laundering case, is set to appear before the Enforcement Directorate (ED). This development comes after Deshmukh on Saturday refused to appear before the ED.

The probing agency has found a money trail of Rs. 4 crore that was extorted from around 12 bar owners and collected by former assistant inspector Sachin Vaze over a few months. This money was then allegedly diverted to Deshmukh through some shell companies located outside Maharashtra.
