Officials said, the agency filed the prosecution complaint under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act before a special court in Mumbai. They said ED has identified proceeds of crime worth over 193 crore rupees.

This is the second charge-sheet in the case by the ED in this case, but the first against Naik underlining his role in the matter.
