The anti-corruption agency Enforcement Directorate (ED) summons Bigg Boss 16 contestants Shiv Thakare and Abdu Rozik in a money laundering case. The case against them involves the funding of drug lord Ali Asghar Shirazi.
ED summons Shiv Thakare and Abdu Rozik in an alleged money laundering case involving drug lord Ali Asghar Shirazi. According to Indian media, ED recorded the statement of Shiv Thakare as a witness in this case. The ED also called his Bigg Boss 16 co-contestant Abdu Rozik to appear before it.
According to the alleged case, Ali Asghar Shirazi established Hustlers’ Hospitality Pvt Ltd., which also funded various companies, including Shiv Thakare and Abdu Rozik.
The company appears to have gained money via narco funding many startup companies, including Thakare Chai and Snacks. Narco funding refers to terrorist organizations that use drug trafficking to provide funds for their operations and gain recruitment and expertise.
Thakare Chai and Snacks is a food and snack brand and cafe of Shiv Thakare. Hence, there are accusations that Shiv Thakre established his company by gaining funds from Hustlers Hospitality.
However, Abdu Rozik also entered the fast food business sector with Burgiir. It is a burger brand created in collaboration with Hustlers Hospitality. According to reports, Ali Asghar Shirazi had made significant investments in Burgiir.

He offered him a partnership with Thakare Chai and Snacks. According to the deal, Hustlers Hospitality invested a huge amount in Thakre Chai and Snacks.
