    What's the story

    An Enforcement Directorate (ED) team was attacked while conducting a raid in Delhi's Bijwasan on Thursday.

    The raid was part of an ongoing investigation into a money laundering case connected to cyber fraud. The central probe agency had registered an FIR in connection with a cyber app fraud involving United Arab Emirates-based Pyypl payment aggregator.

    During the attack, an ED additional director suffered minor injuries but continued with the raids after first aid.

    Attack details

    Five suspects involved in attack on ED team

    The attack on the ED team was carried out by five people, including Ashok Sharma and his brother. One of the suspects fled the spot amid the commotion.

    Despite the incident, the premises have been secured and an FIR registered against the accused of the assault.

    The ED team was at a farmhouse to raid a chartered accountant connected to the case when they were allegedly attacked by these accused.

    The ED's High-Intensity Unit (HIU) has launched widespread searches against top chartered accountants linked to a massive cybercrime syndicate across India.

    The probe has revealed illegal money sourced from thousands of cybercrimes, including phishing scams, QR code fraud, and part-time job scams.

    These crimes involved layering money into 15,000 mule accounts and topping up virtual accounts on Pyypl using debit and credit cards.

    The money from Pyypl was then used to purchase cryptocurrency.
