ED carries out searches at 6 places in Mumbai in fake artwork case

The money trail has revealed that amounts received were sent by domestic ”hawala” operators to the members of the cartel in the form of commission or free and discounted artwork.

During the searches, the ED unearthed a cartel allegedly involving a prominent art gallery in south Mumbai, ace corporate lawyers and bullion traders, wherein fake artwork of original paintings was passed off as genuine.

It has come to light that the cartel operated with the help of people falsely claiming links with royal kingdoms, antique art collectors and small-time artists who created these fake replicas and projected those as authentic with the help of fake certificates of authenticity, provenance and affidavit of ownership, the statement said.
