New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has detained Sandeepa Virk, owner of Highbookare.com, in connection with a money laundering probe. She is accused of selling beauty products through a fake website falsely claiming US FDA approval, and allegedly defrauding customers.
The ED said raids were conducted at multiple locations linked to Virk and her associates in Delhi and Mumbai, exposing what it described as the “entire network”. The action was based on allegations of illegal financial transactions and money laundering. Officials also alleged that Virk attempted to influence an investigation involving the Ambani Group.
Virk, who identifies herself as an actress and cosmetologist and has worked in Malayalam films, is now under scrutiny for her business and financial dealings.
Following the ED action, Punjab Police has reopened a cheating case involving ₹6 crore registered in Mohali. Virk had earlier been linked to the accused, but her name was later removed from the case and the chargesheet.
