Ranchi: Prohibitory orders were imposed Tuesday in key areas of Ranchi in the wake of the political situation arising out of the Enforcement Directorate’s search at the Delhi residence of Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, officials said.

The federal agency searched the 5/1 Shanti Niketan residence of the JMM leader in



south Delhi on Monday, and camped there for almost 13 hours in order to question him in a money laundering case linked to an alleged land deal in Jharkhand.

The ED has seized Rs 36 lakh, an SUV and some "incriminating" documents from Soren’s Delhi house, they said.
