AAP Minister Satyendra Jain’s murky dealing with conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar

In a big revelation, conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, who is currently in jail, confessed to providing Rs.10 crore as “protection money” to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) minister Satyendar Jain.

Chandrashekhar stated in a letter to Delhi Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena that he has known the AAP leader since 2015. Sukesh Chandrasekhar further said in the letter that he paid Rs.50 crore to Jain for a significant party position in south India.

Chandrashekhar was arrested by Delhi Police in the Rs.200 crore extortion case and was recently transferred from Tihar Jail to Mandoli jail after he said he had received death threats.

“After my arrest in 2017, I was lodged in Tihar Jail and was visited multiple times by Mr. Satyendar Jain, who held the portfolio of jail minister… In 2019 again, I was visited by Jain, whose secretary asked me to pay Rs.2 crore every month as protection money and to get basic facilities inside the jail,” wrote Chandrasekhar in his letter to the Delhi LG.
In the letter, Chandrashekhar also stated that he told a CBI investigative team last month about payments made to Satyendra Jain, the Aam Aadmi Party, and D-G Prisons.

Chandrasekhar also alleged that Jain visited him several times in prison after 2017 and asked him whether he had revealed anything about his donation to AAP. Then, in 2019 he allegedly was visited by Jain and his close aide Mr. Sushil who asked him to pay Rs.2 crores a month for the basic facilities within the prison.

Earlier, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Satyendra Jain in a money laundering case connected to the hawala transactions by Kolkata-based companies. The companies have reportedly laundered money to the tune of Rs.16.39 crores from 2010 to 2014.
