The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has so far attached, seized and frozen assets worth Rs. 2,295 in the Mahadev betting app case.
Earlier this month, the ED raided Baghel and his son Chaitanya Baghel's residences in the multi-crore liquor scam.
The scam had allegedly led to the unaccounted sale of country liquor from state-run shops leading to a massive loss to the state exchequer.
The ED claims, as per reports, the entire money was siphoned by the syndicates.
