Fake CSR Donations Lead to Massive Money‑Laundering Case, ED Confirms

The ED’s findings indicate that the accused used the prestige of the "doctor" title—though he possessed no recognized medical degree—to gain credibility. By presenting himself as a healthcare professional, he attracted donations for health‑related CSR projects, then siphoned the money through a network of brokers who received kickbacks and commissions. Some of the diverted funds were returned as cash to private companies after deducting a small commission, while the remainder was laundered via entities already flagged for GST fraud.
