The Enforcement Directorate (ED) attaches assets in Goa in connection with an alleged illegal iron ore mining case involving the AVS Group. According to the ED, its investigation finds that AVS Group operated multiple mining leases between 2007 and 2012 and that illegal extraction, sale and export of iron ore generated proceeds of crime. The Hindu reports that the ED identifies proceeds of crime amounting to ₹2,492.95 crore based on the alleged illegal mining activities during that period. Other outlets report the asset attachment value in Goa as more than ₹1,000 crore, with figures around ₹1,023 crore cited by India Today and about ₹1,000 crore reported by The Economic Times and Times of India. The ED’s action involves provisional attachment of assets under relevant provisions, as part of its investigation into the case. The reports describe the ED’s claim of illegality and the scale of both the proceeds and the attached assets, but do not provide details on court outcomes or the final adjudication of the allegations.
