The vigilance bureau in its FIR claimed preliminary investigations revealed over Rs 540 crore of "drug money" was laundered through several ways and it was allegedly facilitated by Majithia.
Majithia walked out of the jail on bail with the Punjab and Haryana High Court saying there were 'reasonable grounds' to believe that he is not guilty.
Sources said that the Director of Bureau of Investigation of Punjab Police on directions from DGP VK Bhawra issued orders on March 16 for reconstruction of the SIT.
