The agency had said last month that assets worth Rs 4.81 crore of Jain's family and companies "beneficially owned and controlled" by him were provisionally attached as part of a money laundering probe against him.

The statements of the two witnesses are part of the charge-sheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against Malik in the money laundering case pertaining to a property of Dawood Ibrahim.

A provisional order for attaching the properties has been issued under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

This was Deshmukh's first regular bail petition. Earlier, the special court had rejected his plea for default bail, filed on technical ground.

Malik was produced before the court after the expiry of remand. The ED officials told the court that Malik was required for further interrogation. The court after hearing their argument allowed his custody till March 7.

"Documents related to properties and buildings worth Rs 23 crore were seized," said the ED official.

The ED initiated a money-laundering investigation on the basis of this FIR. The ED formed a team of elite officials and started probing the matter. They said that they have got some crucial evidence against Jajodia.
