Phone flung during ED raid may crack global gold smuggling case

Enforcement Directorate agents are examining Dharmesh Sangani’s recovered mobile phone. This businessman faces probes in the UK and US for alleged gold smuggling. The device was retrieved after Sangani threw it from his apartment as agents approached. Authorities suspect a larger gold smuggling and money laundering operation involving influential people. The ED is investigating violations of the Foreign Exchange Management Act against Sangani’s company.
