Introduction
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has started several legal and criminal actions to seize assets and investigate financial crimes involving various companies and individuals.
執行局 (ED) 已啟動多項法律與刑事行動，以沒收資產並調查涉及多家公司與個人的財務犯罪。
Main Body
Regarding the investigation into the Reliance Anil Ambani Group, the ED has seized additional assets worth ₹1,021 crore under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). This action was caused by reports from the CBI and complaints from banks, which alleged that ₹15,548 crore in public funds were moved through fake shell companies. Consequently, the total value of seized properties has reached ₹20,367 crore. A Special Investigation Team is currently leading the probe, and eight senior associates have been taken into custody.
關於對 Reliance Anil Ambani 集團的調查，執行局根據《防止洗錢法》(PMLA) 沒收了額外價值 1,021 億盧比的資產。此次行動是由於 CBI 的報告以及銀行的投訴，指稱有 1,548 億盧比的公共資金透過虛假殼公司轉移。因此，被沒收財產的總價值已達到 2,036.7 億盧比。目前由一個特別調查小組領導調查，並有八名高級合夥人被拘留。
At the same time, the ED searched Kalanee Impex Pvt Ltd and its director, Dharmesh Sangani, for breaking foreign exchange laws. The agency emphasized that Sangani failed to report export earnings and hid assets in Canada, the UAE, and the US. Furthermore, the ED filed a police complaint claiming that Sangani tried to block the investigation by throwing a mobile phone from a tall building. It was also noted that Sangani has a history of legal trouble, including a 2016 incident with the UK Border Force.
同時，執行局搜查了 Kalanee Impex Pvt Ltd 及其董事 Dharmesh Sangani，原因為違反外匯法。該機構強調 Sangani 未申報出口收益，並在加拿大、阿拉伯聯合大公國及美國隱藏資產。此外，執行局提交了警方投訴，聲稱 Sangani 試圖透過將手機從高樓扔下以阻礙調查。同時指出 Sangani 有法律問題紀錄，包括 2016 年與英國邊境局發生的事件。
In a separate case involving the Mahadev Online Book (MOB) betting syndicate, the ED seized ₹940.77 crore in assets linked to Vikas Garg. The agency asserted that these assets were bought using illegal money from the MOB and Skyexchange platforms. The investigation shows that funds were moved through a complex network of companies to make the money look legal. In total, the agency has frozen or seized approximately ₹3,800 crore related to this syndicate.

Conclusion
The Enforcement Directorate continues to increase its efforts to recover assets and investigate various types of financial crimes.
執行局將持續加大力度，以追回資產並調查各類財務犯罪。
Vocabulary Learning
🧩 The 'Logic-Link' Shift: Moving Beyond 'And' & 'But'
At an A2 level, you likely connect ideas using simple words like and, but, or because. To reach B2, you need Connectors of Result and Addition. These words act like bridges, making your speech sound professional and academic rather than basic.
🛠️ The Upgrade Map
Look at how the text transforms simple ideas into B2-level structures:
1. The Result Bridge
- A2 Style: "They found fake companies, so they seized the property."
- B2 Style: "...alleged that funds were moved through fake shell companies. Consequently, the total value of seized properties has reached ₹20,367 crore."
- Why it works: Consequently signals a direct, formal result. Use it when one action leads logically to another.
2. The 'Adding More' Bridge
- A2 Style: "He didn't report earnings and he hid assets."
- B2 Style: "...Sangani failed to report export earnings... Furthermore, the ED filed a police complaint..."
- Why it works: Furthermore tells the listener: "I have already given you one piece of evidence, and now I am adding an even stronger one." It builds a cumulative argument.
🔍 Linguistic Observation: "The Complex Network"
Notice the phrase: "...to make the money look legal."
B2 learners stop using just "make" and start using Purpose Clauses.
- Basic: He used a company to hide money.
- B2: He used a complex network of companies to make the money look legal.
Pro Tip: When describing a process or a crime, don't just say what happened. Use Consequently to show the effect and Furthermore to stack the facts. This is the fastest way to sound like a B2 speaker.
