Indian cryptocurrency exchange WazirX on Monday said that India's Enforcement Directorate (ED) has unfrozen its bank accounts after the exchange's “active cooperation” and “active anti-money laundering” checks led to blocking suspicious accounts. India's ED last month froze the accounts of the cryptocurrency exchange WazirX as part of a money laundering investigation.

WazirX's bank accounts were unfrozen by India's agency for combating financial crime, according to the cryptocurrency exchange. One of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in India by trading volume, WazirX, claimed in a statement that the Enforcement Directorate cleared its funds as a result of its active participation in the current money laundering probe.

India's Enforcement Directorate (ED) has unfrozen the bank accounts of cryptocurrency exchange Wazirx, the company said. The accounts were frozen as part of the federal agency's investigation into 16 fintech companies and instant loan apps.

India's federal Enforcement Directorate (ED) has now unfrozen crypto exchange WazirX's assets. Last year, ED undertook an investigation into the crypto platform as it suspected violations of foreign exchange regulations.
