Overview
- The attachment covers six allegedly illegal MUDA sites, three other immovable properties and a commercial building valued at about ₹20.85 crore.
- ED says the case stems from a Lokayukta Police FIR on irregular allotments that names Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah as a suspect.
- October 2024 searches found allotments in violation of 2023 government communications and urban-development rules on compensation and voluntary land surrender.
- Investigators report a nexus between MUDA officials and real-estate operators, cash payments for site allotments and layout approvals, and proceeds routed through relatives to buy assets.
- Former MUDA commissioner G. T. Dinesh Kumar remains in judicial custody after a September 2025 PMLA arrest, and the agency has attached about ₹460 crore in alleged proceeds overall, including 283 MUDA sites earlier.
