Tinu Joshi and her late husband, former IAS officer Arvind Joshi, are facing ongoing legal challenges related to alleged illegal assets. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed a supplementary prosecution complaint against the couple in connection with a money laundering case. This complaint was submitted to a special PMLA court in Bhopal on March 31, where the ED claims that the Joshi couple amassed illegal movable and immovable assets worth ₹41.87 crores.

The case against the late IAS officer and his wife was initially registered by the Lokayukt police in Bhopal. Following this, the ED initiated an investigation under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) in 2002. The investigation revealed that the couple had misused their official positions to acquire these illegal assets.

The ED's regional office in Bhopal has now filed a second supplementary complaint against the Joshi couple based on the case registered with the Lokayukt. They are accused of holding assets worth ₹41.87 crores, significantly exceeding their legitimate income. The investigation uncovered that Arvind Joshi and Tinu Joshi had accumulated substantial movable and immovable properties in their names and those of their family members.

Previously, the ED had issued three provisional attachment orders to seize approximately ₹8.60 crores worth of illegally acquired assets. The investigation also revealed that Arvind Joshi had created properties under the names of other individuals to conceal ownership, deliberately involving third parties. Additionally, on January 28, another interim attachment order was issued, leading to the seizure of assets worth around ₹5 crores belonging to the Joshi family.
