Ahmedabad, Jan 2: IAS officer and former Collector of Gujarat’s Surendra Nagar district Rajendra Kumar Patel has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with a bribery-linked money laundering case.
ED has arrested Patel in connection with a bribery-linked money laundering probe.
Patel, a 2015-batch IAS officer who last served as the Surendranagar collector, was transferred without a posting a week ago, after the ED arrested a ‘Deputy Mamlatdar’ (Revenue Officer) from his office in a money laundering case stemming from bribery.
The Gujarat Anti-Corruption Bureau has also registered an FIR against Patel and three others on a complaint by the ED in connection with the money laundering probe.
