ED attaches ₹11.14 cr assets of former cricketers Suresh Raina, Shikhar Dhawan in 1xBet money laundering case

India’s Enforcement Directorate (ED) has provisionally attached assets worth ₹11.14 crore belonging to former cricketers Suresh Raina and Shikhar Dhawan in connection with the 1xBet money laundering case. The attachments include ₹6.64 crore in mutual funds under Raina’s name and a ₹4.5 crore property owned by Dhawan. 

ED’s probe revealed both endorsed 1xBet surrogates despite knowing its illegal nature. The agency uncovered a ₹1,000 crore laundering trail involving over 6,000 mule accounts and multiple unverified payment gateways. Over ₹4 crore in funds and 60 bank accounts have been frozen. “Further investigation is underway,” said ED officials.

The ED has provisionally attached both movable and immovable properties belonging to Raina and Dhawan under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002.
