19 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The ED had taken Archana Nag on seven days remand and produced her in the court on Tuesday after completion of the remand.

Archana is the second person after Khageswar, the accomplice of the lady black mailer, to be arrested by the ED under the Prevention of Money
Laundering Act. Nag was earlier arrested by Odisha police on October 7 on charges of honey-trapping bigwigs and extorting money from them. The sub-divisional judicial magistrate had rejected her bail petition on October 17
last. Later her husband Jagabandhu Chand was also arrested on October 21 from their Satya Bihar residence in the state capital. While being taken on remand by the ED, the lady black mailer and alleged mastermind of the high-profile sextortion racket told the media at the capital Hospital that she wanted the ED to take her on remand. The black mailer dropped a bomb shell stating that she will disclose everything to the ED which will change the scene of Odisha state.
