ED Raids 13 Locations in Dunki Route Case

The agents made money by charging high fees and extorting more money from the people.
The ED has attached properties worth Rs 5.41 crore linked to these agents.
Earlier, the ED had conducted raids at 19 locations and found fake documents and digital devices.
