The two businessmen have been reportedly identified as Mukesh and Sudhanshu Bansal.
A shell corporation is a corporation without active business operations or significant assets. These types of corporations are not all necessarily illegal, but they are sometimes used illegitimately, such as to disguise business ownership from law enforcement or the public.
With the police arrested businessmen who were transferring money to AAP, who used to tout themselves to be anti-corruption crusaders, a Pandora’s box might be set to open with ill-gotten donations being revealed.
