A special Prevention of Money Laundering Act court in Mumbai on Friday declared the wife and two sons of late gangster Iqbal Mirchi as fugitive economic offenders in a money laundering case.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) in December had moved an application seeking that the court “declare Junaid Iqbal Memon and Asif Iqbal Memon (sons of Mirchi) and Hajra Memon (wife) as fugitive economic offenders”.

ED had filed a complaint against these three and 13 other accused in December last year stating that Mirchi had bought properties in India using money earned through illegal activities and later also sold them for redevelopment.
