Mahesh Babu Summoned: ED Calls Telugu Actor in INR 5.9 Crore Realty Scam Linked to Hyderabad Developers
The Enforcement Directorate has summoned Telugu actor Mahesh Babu in connection with an INR 5.9 crore payment he received for endorsing a realty firm accused of defrauding buyers in Hyderabad.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned actor Mahesh Babu for questioning on April 28 in a money laundering case involving Hyderabad-based real estate firms Sai Surya Developers and Surana Group. Babu, who endorsed Sai Surya’s projects, reportedly received INR 5.9 crore—INR 2.5 crore in cash. ED suspects the cash was part of laundered funds from fraudulent land deals. FIRS were earlier filed against developers for duping buyers with unauthorised plots and fake registrations. ED recently seized incriminating documents and is preparing to attach properties linked to the scam. ‘Sankranthiki Vasthunam’: Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar Join Venkatesh Daggubati at the Success Party of His Makar Sankranti Release (View Pics).
