New Delhi: The Enforcement Director summoned Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Tuesday for questioning for investigation, in connection with a money-laundering case linked to the re-development of a Mumbai ‘chawl’, officials said.
The development comes as the Shiv Sena party battles rebellion from a group of its MLAs, putting a question mark on the future of Maharashtra’s Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government. The Rajya Sabha MP has been asked to depose before the federal agency at its office in south Mumbai on June 28 and record his statement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the officials said.
The ED in April provisionally attached assets worth more than Rs 11.15 crore of Raut’s wife Varsha Raut and two of his associates as part of this investigation.
