ED Links Rapido Driver's Account to Udaipur Wedding
The Enforcement Directorate found that a Rapido bike driver's bank account was used to fund a very expensive wedding in Udaipur.
The driver's account received a huge amount of money, and some of it was used to pay for the wedding of a political figure named Aditya Zula.
The ED thinks the driver's account was used to hide where the money really came from.
They believe the money might be linked to illegal betting.
The ED is warning people not to share their bank details with others because it can lead to legal trouble.
The ED traced Rs 331.36 crore deposited into a Rapido driver's account between August 2024 and April 2025.
Over Rs 1 crore from this account was spent on Aditya Zula's wedding in Udaipur.
The driver's account was used as a mule to move money from unidentified sources to other suspicious accounts.
The ED suspects the money is linked to illegal betting operations.
The driver had no connection to the bride or groom, raising questions about the source of the funds.
