Actor Nusrat Jahan Appears Before ED in Kolkata Over Housing Fraud Probe

New Delhi, April 22, 2026 – Actor and former Trinamool Congress (TMC) Member of Parliament, Nusrat Jahan, appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) at its Salt Lake office in Kolkata today, April 22, 2026, in connection with an ongoing investigation into a high-profile housing project fraud case.

Accompanied by her husband, actor Yash Dasgupta, Jahan arrived at the CGO Complex in the morning to comply with the federal agency’s summons. She refrained from speaking to the media upon her arrival.

Background of the Case

The central agency is currently investigating allegations of financial irregularities linked to a housing project in Rajarhat. According to official reports, the firm under scrutiny, Seven Sense Infrastructure Pvt Ltd, allegedly collected substantial funds from homebuyers with the promise of delivering residential flats, but failed to execute the project or provide the promised units.

The case gained momentum following a complaint filed by BJP leader Shankudeb Panda. The complaint alleged that more than 400 senior citizens were defrauded during 2014–15, having paid approximately ₹5.5 lakh each for 1,000 sq ft flats that never materialized.

ED’s Focus

An ED official stated that new information emerged over the past several months, which necessitated fresh questioning of the actor. The agency is probing the actor’s alleged role as a director of the company during the period when the funds were collected.

This is not the first time the actor has been summoned; Jahan previously appeared before the agency in 2023, where she was questioned for nearly six hours regarding her association with the firm.

Nusrat Jahan’s Stance

Nusrat Jahan has consistently denied all allegations of wrongdoing. In previous public statements and press conferences, she maintained that she was a director of the company in the past but resigned in 2017 after settling her dues. She has previously asserted her innocence, claiming that she has bank statements to prove that she returned the loan she had taken from the company with interest, and has categorized the accusations as politically motivated.

The investigation remains active, and the ED continues to scrutinize financial transactions related to the company’s operations.
