Income Tax dept raids places linked to Actor Sonu Sood

 MUMBAI: Income tax department officials today surveyed at least six properties in Mumbai and Lucknow, linked to Bollywood actor Sonu Sood.

It was not immediately known whether the I-T officials visited Sonu Sood's residence as well.

According to reports, a real estate deal is also under the scanner of the income tax department.

Last month, the Delhi Government had announced Sonu Sood as the brand ambassador of their 'Desh Ka Mentor' programme. 

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had also announced that the Delhi government would soon come up with "the most progressive" film policy in the country that would provide a massive boost to the entertainment industry.  Both Kejriwal and Sood had then said that no discussions around politics were held during their meeting.
