ED officials referring to the previous raid on Mukherjee’s flat said that the pile of cash and valuables are coming out from her house like treasure coming out from “Ali Baba’s iron chest”. “On Wednesday, they brought four big cash-counting machines from the State Bank of India to the flat to count the fresh stash that they described as “proceeds of crime”.”

ED found bundles of ₹2,000 and ₹500 notes coming out from the cupboards and wardrobes in the flat which was on the eight floors after the officials accessed the main lock with the help of a keymaker when the housing association’s secretary was present.
