Dharam Chhokar Arrested by ED in Rs 363 Cr Money Laundering Case After Dramatic Chase at Delhi Hotel



New Delhi: In a high-drama late-night operation, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Sunday arrested former Haryana Congress MLA Dharam Chhokar at the upscale Shangri-La Hotel in Delhi in connection with a Rs 363 crore money laundering case.

Acting on a tip-off that Chhokar was at Grappa bar in the hotel, ED Joint Director Navaneet Agrawal swiftly moved in with a team. Upon being confronted with seven non-bailable warrants, Chhokar attempted to flee with help from his bodyguards, leading to a dramatic chase through the hotel lobby. He allegedly resisted arrest and tried to assault ED officials and hotel staff.

Despite his attempts to escape, Chhokar was intercepted, restrained, and taken into custody. CCTV footage captured his struggle during the arrest. He was later shifted to the ED office for questioning.

On Monday, a Gurgaon court remanded him to six days of ED custody. Chhokar’s son, Sikander, had earlier been arrested in the same case. In July 2023, the ED had seized properties, vehicles, cash, and jewellery worth several crores linked to the accused.

Chhokar, a two-time MLA from Samalkha, lost his seat in the 2024 elections. His arrest marks a significant step in the ED’s probe into one of Haryana’s biggest financial scams.
