The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday conducted searches at six locations in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh in connection with an alleged mass conversion case against Mohammad Umar Gautam and others. The searches were carried out in Delhi's Batla House, Bijnor and Lucknow under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
