Controversies

Nawab Malik made comments about Wankhede and his family and warned Wankhede of losing his job. Later, Malik tendered an 'unconditional apology' to Bombay High Court for public remarks he made despite his earlier undertaking not to post anything about NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede and his family.
Malik was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate on 23 February 2022 in a money laundering case and his alleged links with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. He was charged and placed under arrest under the provisions of Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) after several hours of grilling. One of the charges the ED is investigating against Malik — initially leveled by former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis — is a property deal that Malik had entered into. There are allegations that the property was allegedly bought by Malik from an aide of Dawood Ibrahim at a price lower than its prevailing market rate. A prime property of 2.80 acre on L B S Marg in Kurla was bought by Solidus Investment Private Limited for a meagre ₹30 lakh. The signatory on the deal was Faraz Malik, the son of Nawab Malik. He has been remanded to ED custody until the 3rd of March 2022.
