The Enforcement Directorate in its charge sheet in the Rs 100 crore extortion and money laundering case said that former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh has been taking undue advantage of the positions he held since 1992. "Anil Deshmukh took the wrong advantage of his position since 1992. He made a lot of money and property through illegal means. The illegally earned money was used in 13 companies. These are either owned by his sons or his close associates," reads the chargesheet.

"Many government employees were also associated with him and he used to get work done from them," the chargesheet added. So far, ED has recorded the statements of around 51 people in the case which include several IAS, IPS officers, CA, politicians and owners of bars. As per the chargesheet, dismissed Mumbai police officer Sachin Waze told ED in his statement that Deshmukh demanded Rs 2 crore from him for reinstating him in Mumbai Police after 16 years of suspension.
