Besides premises associated with Amandeep Kaur Arora, her husband Rakesh Arora and their family members as well as associates, the ED teams are conducting searches at the de-addiction hospital associated with Rakesh Arora.

The search operation is aimed at collecting evidence linked to the ongoing case in which the agency has already collected several materials in the form of digital evidence and others. Officials said the purpose of the search is to unearth the money trail and the alleged corruption activities committed in the case by the accused named in the police FIR as well as the agency's ECIR.
