So here’s a little interesting story about Padmashree Adnan Sami.

In 2003, Adnan Sami bought 8 flats in Mumbai without permission from the RBI.

Pakistani nationals aren’t allowed to buy property in India without permission.

(1/3)
In December 2010, the ED ordered Sami to pay a penalty of 20 lakhs & also ordered that all these 8 flats be confiscated immediately.

Remember, Sami was still a Pakistani citizen then.

In 2016, Adnan Sami got Indian citizenship.

And then in Sep 2019, an ED Tribunal quashed the earlier order & said that Adnan Sami’s properties won’t be consfiscated.

Instead he got away with a 50 lakh penalty & retained his 8 properties.

Bas, aap chronology samjhiye.

(3/3)
PS:

Forgot to mention - the ED, conveniently, didn’t appeal against the Tribunal’s September 2019 order.
