On July 16, 2026, the India — Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted coordinated searches at 13 premises across India — Uttar Pradesh, India — Delhi, India — Haryana, India — West Bengal, and India — Maharashtra in a money laundering investigation linked to an alleged terror funding and illegal infiltration network. The case originates from a 2024 FIR by the India — Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) against an organized syndicate accused of facilitating illegal infiltration of Rohingya and Bangladeshi nationals into India, arranging forged identity documents, and aiding their rehabilitation. The ED's investigation uncovered a financial network involving charitable trusts and entities allegedly receiving foreign contributions and diverting funds through multiple bank accounts, mule accounts, and layered transactions. Searched institutions include Sun Shine Health and Social Welfare Society, Kabirbag Millat Academy, and Harora Al-Jamiatul Islamia Darul Uloom. The ED is examining documents, digital evidence, and financial records to establish the money trail.
