Introduction

Police and tax officers in Punjab are starting legal cases. They are looking for people who did not pay taxes and broke money laws.

Main Body

The government took money and houses from a company and a minister. This company lied about selling goods to other countries. They sent 102 crore rupees to companies in the UAE to hide the money. Tax officers also stopped another big crime. A man named Paramjeet Singh lied about his business to pay less tax. He used fake papers for 85 crore rupees. Officers used computers to check trucks and roads. They saw that the trucks did not move any goods. The man had blank books to make fake receipts.

Conclusion

The police are still working. They are looking for more hidden money.

  • Legal cases β†’\rightarrow Court problems
  • Goods β†’\rightarrow Things to sell
  • Receipts β†’\rightarrow Paper for payment

πŸ’‘ Grammar Tip: The Past

Notice how the story uses -ed to talk about things that are finished:

If it ends in -ed, it happened yesterday or last year.
