    The High Court of Chhattisgarh at Bilaspur dismissed all nine appeals challenging attachment of properties of Ranu Sahu (an IAS officer) and eight family members under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) in a coal levy extortion scam. The court upheld the Adjudicating Authority's confirmation of provisional property attachments totaling Rs. 5.52 crores to Ranu Sahu, finding sufficient material to establish her involvement in money laundering through receipt of bribes from a coal extortion syndicate and layering of proceeds through property purchases in family members' names, even for properties acquired prior to the crime period.
