Kolkata, 10/9: The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday seized crores of rupees during a search operation that covered six premises in Kolkata.
The raids concern an investigation related to a mobile gaming app, designed for defrauding its users. The new recovery has provided one more opportunity to the ruling Trinamool’s opponents for pointing fingers, and blaming the ruling party for rampant corruption.
The mobile gaming application, E-Nuggets, was launched by a person named Amir Khan. It initially rewarded the users with commission, and it was possible to withdraw the wallet-balance. As the confidence of the users grew stronger, investments became bigger. After strong collections from the users, withdrawal from the app was stopped under different pretexts. After this, data and profile information was deleted from the app servers.
