The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has sought the Dutch investigation report on the alleged money laundering via over-invoicing of gas and oil exploration equipment involving a private company earlier owned by Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries. RIL has denied the charge.
“We are aware of the action taken by the Dutch investigator. The probe agency is looking into the matter and its alleged connection with Indian firms," a senior ED official told Business Standard.
According to the sources, the enforcement agency had received the money laundering alert a few months back when its counterpart in the Netherlands approached it for certain information.
