The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday said it has attached assets worth Rs 4.13 crore of former Goa Cricket Association (GCA) executives in connection with a money laundering case.
The Goa zonal office of the central probe agency issued a provisional order for attachment of properties under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against Dayanand Narvekar, Chetan Desai, Vinod Phadke and Akbar Mulla.
The four officials, it said, were officer-bearers of the GCA.
The ED had filed a PMLA case based on a Goa police FIR "for siphoning off the funds received by GCA from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)".
The agency said its probe found that these people defrauded the GCA by opening illegal bank accounts in the name of the state cricket body and a portion of the grants/TV subsidy received from BCCI would be deposited in the accounts.
"Thereafter, the money so deposited would be withdrawn in cash using bearers cheques in name of fictitious persons," the ED said.
However, the company confirmed that they have not supplied any equipment nor any payment was made to it by the GCA, the ED said.
