The Directorate of Enforcement (ED), Allahabad Sub-zonal office has provisionally attached immovable properties worth Rs.12.54 Crore and a movable property in the form of Fixed Deposit for Rs.1.85 Crore, bringing the total to Rs.14.39 Crore. The attachments are related to money laundering cases against Vijay Mishra and others, with ties to his family members.

The investigation is based on an FIR registered by the Vigilance Department against Vijay Mishra and his wife Smt. Ramlali Mishra for accumulating disproportionate assets in the form of movable and immovable properties. Apart from this case, there are 84 criminal cases registered against Vijay Mishra and his family members across Uttar Pradesh.

The ED investigation revealed that Vijay Mishra and his wife misused their official position to incorporate a company, M/s VSP Starrr Realty Pvt. Ltd., which owned property worth Rs.11.07 Crore. The ED attached this property in February 2024, and it was leased out for commercial purposes, generating Proceeds of Crime (POC). The POC was then invested in purchasing properties in Prayagraj and Rewa, MP.

The investigation also found that POC generated from Vijay Mishra's criminal activities was transferred to various individuals, including Bhola Nath Rajpati Shukla and Virendra Ram Murat Tiwari. This led to the attachment of movable/immovable properties worth Rs.25.46 Crore under the provisions of Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002. Further investigation is ongoing.
