<h1>Repatriation of deputed enforcement officer: curtailment of deputation approved with immediate return amid ongoing high-profile probes.</h1> The government approved curtailment of the officer's deputation tenure and ordered repatriation to his parent cadre with immediate effect through the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet; the officer's prior extension intended for continuity in important ED investigations was terminated prematurely, while ED officials described the move as routine. The officer, on deputation since 2013, led multiple high profile money laundering and bank fraud probes and oversaw actions including attachment of foreign based assets alleged as proceeds of crime.
