Lalu Yadav's Close Aide Subhash Yadav Arrested In Sand Mining Case

The arrest follows a 14-hour raid conducted by the ED at eight locations associated with the RJD leader.

Subhash Yadav, a prominent leader of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and a close associate of Lalu Prasad Yadav, has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with illegal sand mining activities. The arrest follows a 14-hour raid conducted by the ED at eight locations associated with the RJD leader. 

The ED's actions stem from a probe initiated under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) based on 20 FIRs registered by the Bihar Police against M/s Broadsons Commodities Pvt Ltd (BCPL) whose director is Subhash Yadav. The FIRs accused BCPL of engaging in illegal sand mining and sale without using e-challans, raising serious concerns about environmental regulations and revenue losses.
