ED likely to seek more custody of Channi’s nephew, says not cooperating
The Enforcement Directorate may seek to extend the remand of Bhupinder Singh Honey, the nephew of Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi.
Honey is due to appear in court on Tuesday after her custody in a money laundering prevention case related to illegal mining in Punjab expired.
The ED is considering seeking additional custody after Honey reportedly recused during the interrogation and did not cooperate with the investigating agency, the sources said. He needs to face other defendants and more documents, ED sources said.
Honey was arrested on the night of February 3-4 and remanded in ED custody until February 8.
Honey is interrogated by an elite team of officers from the Central Investigation Agency. The court allowed his family to see him once a day for an hour at a time.
ED documents accessed by IANS show that Honey allegedly took money from officials in lieu of transfers and mailings of their choosing.
“Furthermore, Bhupinder Singh made it clear in his statement during the search that, among other things, from his residence in Ludhiana (Rs 409 crore), Sandeep Kumar’s residence in Ludhiana (Rs 199 crore) and homeland All cash confiscated on Mohali’s house (Rs 389 crore) was actually related to him. He admitted to generating such criminal proceeds through mining-related activities, including clearing mining documents and transferring officers,” reads the ED document.
Sources say Honey has used his political connections to make huge profits since he was close to Chaney.
According to ED documents, Honey admitted to recovering his Rs 10 crore in the raid.
ED claims he also profited from illegal mining.
On January 18, the ED conducted raids at 10 different locations, including Honey’s home in Homeland Heights.
The ED continued to search various locations for two days and recovered criminal documents.
Honey was asked to appear at the ED’s regional office in Jalandhar. He must record his statements related to the ongoing investigation.
ED officials recorded statements from Honey’s business partner, Kudrat Deep Singh.
ED officials had said they seized criminal documents related to illegal sand mining, property transactions, mobile phones, gold worth more than Rs 2.1 lakh, watches worth Rs 1.2 lakh and Rs 100 crore in cash during the raid.
A source said the documents they recovered confirmed that Kudrat Deep Singh ran two companies of which Bhupinder Singh Honey was a co-director.
The companies are basically shell companies, but the ED has uncovered a lot of money deals, according to sources. One of these companies is Provider Overseas Consultancy Limited, which was established in 2018 with an equal share of 33.33%.

Who is Harun Abdul-Malik Yener? Florida man arrested over bomb threat to New York Stock Exchange
FBI arrested Harun Abdul-Malik Yener for allegedly planning a bombing at the NYSE to “reset” the US government.
Harun Abdul-Malik Yener, a South Florida resident, has been arrested by the FBI for allegedly plotting to bomb the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) as part of a plan to “reset” or “reboot” the U.S. government. According to unsealed court documents, Yener faces charges of attempting to use an improvised explosive device (IED) against a “building used in interstate or foreign commerce.”
The investigation into Yener began in February when the FBI received a tip about his possession of bomb-making plans stored in a locked Coral Springs storage unit. Upon executing a search warrant, agents discovered “bomb-making sketches, numerous watches with timers, electronic circuit boards, and other electronics” that could be used to construct explosives, per the criminal complaint.
Court documents reveal that Yener was not only active on YouTube, posting videos on making explosives and fireworks, but also had a history of making threats.
Harun Abdul-Malik Yener wanted to ‘reset’ US government
Back in March, Yener admitted to undercover federal agents that he had experience in creating “rockets” and “bombs” and had previously sought to join a “domestic extremist group.” He also revealed that in 2015, he had considered travelling to Iraq to join ISIS but ultimately decided against it, doubting the group’s ability to accomplish “their objectives.”
Yener also attempted to join extremist groups such as the Boogaloo Bois and the Proud Boys but was reportedly denied membership due to his stated desire to “pursue martyrdom.”
Yener allegedly shared his plot to attack the NYSE with an undercover FBI agent, identifying November 18 as his intended date for the bombing. He wanted to “reboot” or “reset” US government through the “bombing”.
“There is one place that would be hella easy… the stock exchange, that would be a great hit. Tons of people would support it. They would see it and think, dude, this guy makes sense, they are [profanity] robbing us. So that’s perfect,” he told the undercover agent.
On November 12, Yener reportedly made several audio recordings he planned to send to NBC News following the attack. He expressed his vision of the explosion as being comparable to a nuclear event, saying, “I feel like Bin Laden.” He allegedly added that the detonation would ensure “[a]nything outside” the building “will be wiped out” and “anything inside there would be killed.”
Following his arrest, Yener made his first court appearance and remains in custody as he awaits trial.
