Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui, the founder of Al Falah University - the epicentre of terror module behind the Delhi blast, was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with a terror financing-linked money laundering case on Tuesday.
He was taken into custody under the criminal provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The probe agency investigation follows two FIRs filed recently by the Delhi Police Crime Branch against Al-Falah University, including cases related to cheating and alleged forgery concerning accreditation documents.
