The Enforcement Directorate announced the attachment of properties belonging to suspended Assistant Revenue Officer Rajesh Parmar of the Indore Municipal Corporation under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. The attached properties, valued at over Rs 1.6 crore, include a residential house, plots, a flat, and agricultural land in Indore registered in Parmar’s and his family members’ names. These assets, acquired between 2007 and 2022, allegedly exceed 175% of Parmar’s known income during the same period.
According to the Enforcement Directorate, the attachment was made due to the alleged acquisition of disproportionate assets by Rajesh Parmar and his family members. The action follows an investigation based on an FIR filed by the Economic Offences Wing, Bhopal, against Parmar under the Prevention of Corruption Act. The probe revealed that funds from illegal activities were used to acquire immovable properties in Parmar’s and his family members’ names.
Investigations by the Enforcement Directorate uncovered that Rajesh Parmar and his family members received large cash deposits into their bank accounts to conceal the illicit origin of funds. These funds were then transferred through bank transactions and used to purchase immovable properties. Parmar was suspended in 2025 over financial irregularities during his tenure as Assistant Revenue Officer in the Indore Municipal Corporation, following an FIR filed by the EOW in the same year.
During the investigation, details emerged about properties owned by Parmar and his family members, including a two-storey house in Bijalpur, a flat in Sanchar Nagar, a plot in Sampat Green, a flat in Shreeji Valley, a plot in Uday Nagar, a flat in Khushbu Villa, and another flat in Satellite Valley in Indore.
