Kerkar was arrested in Mumbai under various sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and will be produced before a local court there, they said.
The case pertains to the ED’s money laundering probe in which the central probe agency had said it had found that Yes Bank had a total outstanding amount of Rs 3,642 crore against Cox & Kings Group of Companies (CKG).
