The ED on July 1, also arrested two associates of Satyendar Jain - Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain - in the case.

The ED on June 6 had seized cash worth Rs 2.85 crore and 133 gold coins weighing 1.80 kg from Satyendra Jain's aides during its day-long raids conducted at various places across Delhi and the National Capital Region.
