**Bhubaneswar**: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has registered a money laundering case against Orissa Stevedores Limited (OSL) Chief Mahimananda Mishra, who was arrested in connection with murder of a Paradip-based stevedore company’s general manager Mahendra Swain in November last year.
According to sources, the ED will begin a probe into his financial transactions.
This apart, the ED also registered cases against contractor and Congress leader Bapi Sarkhel, OSL and ten others.
Sources said, the Enforcement Directorate is likely to serve notice to both Mishra and Sarkhel to appear for investigation into their alleged ‘illegal financial’ transactions.
Worth mentioning, Orissa High Court had granted conditional bail to industrialist Mishra,
who was arrested in December last year from Bangkok for allegedly masterminding October 26 murder case.
