The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday told the court that former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh directly controlled 13 companies to launder money, while his close associate and family members were in control of 14 other firms. The agency, which had arrested Deshmukh in a multi-crore money laundering case late Monday night, secured his custody until Saturday.
