The ED has learnt that the accused sent 250,000 British pounds to a political party in the United Kingdom through one of the subsidiary companies.

The ED learnt that the accused entities in connivance with each other as well as other related entities have illegally diverted loan funds sanctioned by the consortium of banks by way of transferring loan funds into the accounts of various shell entities under the guise of genuine business transactions.

"It was also known that Karan A Chanana had donated 250,000 British pounds to a political party of United Kingdom through one of the subsidiary company of the accused entity, Amira Pure Foods Pvt Ltd., while the accused entity had itself defaulted on repayment of loans and was declared as NPA in year 2016-17 by consortium member banks," said the ED.
