Saradha scam: Mithun Chakraborty returns Rs. 1.19 Crore to ED
He received this money for appearing on one of Saradha's TV channels.
Chakraborty returned the money at the ED office in Kolkata.
He was questioned last month by the ED in connection with the multi-crore Saradha chit fund scam.
Earlier, the ED had found that an amount of about Rs. 2 crore had gone into Chakraborty's account from Saradha business portals.
However, the actor had maintained that his association with the group was purely professional.
The multi-crore scam left lakhs of depositors fleeced in West Bengal and triggered a political uproar.
