The Chandiwal Commission probing Parambir Singh’s allegation submitted a 201-page inquiry report to Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Tuesday. Justice Uttam Chandiwal, the head of the one-man inquiry committee, reached the CM with a copy of the reports and statements in the 2 suitcases and formally handed it over to him.

Justice Uttam Chandiwal had reached the CM with documents in two suitcases.

The tenure of this inquiry committee extended by 6 months
This inquiry committee was constituted by the state government on March 30, 2021. It was supposed to submit its report in just 6 months, but later the state government extended its tenure. Deshmukh is currently lodged in Mumbai’s Arthur Road Jail after the ED’s action in the money laundering case. CBI is also investigating against him. ED has also arrested his PA and PS, his bail application has also been rejected many times.

Parambir Singh also appeared twice before the Chandiwal Commission.

More than 80 meetings were held, statements of many people were recorded
The inquiry committee held more than 80 meetings to prepare this report and they recorded statements of several people including Parambir, Anil Deshmukh, his staff, family members, Antilia case accused Sachin Vajhe and Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik Huh. The government is also going to place this report on the table of the House in the upcoming session of the Vidhan Sabha.

Parambir Singh had accused Deshmukh of this
The then Mumbai Police Commissioner Parambir Singh had written a letter to CM Uddhav Thackeray alleging that Home Minister Anil Deshmukh was using police officers to extort 100 crores from bars and restaurants in Mumbai. According to Singh, Deshmukh had given a target of collecting Rs 2 crore each from 1750 bars and restaurants in Mumbai. Many police officers including Sachin Vajhe were engaged in this work.

This is how the entry of CBI and ED happened in this case.
After this allegation, Anil Deshmukh landed in trouble. He had to resign from the post of Home Minister. On the orders of the High Court, the CBI started investigating the case. When the investigation of this case started, more cases of money laundering kept on opening. In such a situation, another central investigative agency ED also entered. Many places of Anil Deshmukh were raided and then ED arrested him. Deshmukh is currently lodged in Arthur Road Jail in Mumbai.
