ED likely to file Chargesheet soon against robert vadra in three money laundering case

Ed Chargesheet Soon: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) may soon file a charge sheet against Robert Vadra, brother-in-law of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and businessman Robert Vadra in the Lok Sabha. The ED on Wednesday questioned Robert Vadra for the second consecutive day in the alleged money laundering case related to the 2008 Haryana land deal. The case is related to alleged financial irregularities in a deal for a plot in Shikohpur (Gurugram), Haryana. The ED had also questioned him in two other cases of money laundering recently.

Sources said that the agency will soon file a charge sheet against Vadra in the three cases related to the Special Money Laundering Act (PMLA) courts. Sources said that once the charge sheet is filed, the agency will request the courts to take cognizance of the complaints of the prosecution and start a case.

A case against Vadra is related to Britain

Sources said that some companies and individuals can also be nominated as accused and witnesses in these chargesheets. Robert Vadra, husband of Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra from Wayanad, has refused to do any wrong act. One of these cases is related to a money laundering investigation against UK resident Arms Advisor Sanjay Bhandari and his alleged relationship with Vadra. It is said that 63 -year -old Bhandari fled to London soon after the Income Tax Department raided Delhi in 2016.

What is the charge against Vadra in this case

The ED filed a charge sheet in this case in 2023, alleging that Bhandari “acquired” the house at the 12-Berinston Square in London in 2009 and “Robert Vadra renovated it as per the instructions of Robert Vadra and the money for renovation was made available by Robert Vadra.” Wandra has invested with any direct or indirect property in London. Describing these allegations as “political conspiracy”, he has claimed that he is being “tortured” to fulfill political objectives.

Bikaner land deal can also be charged

The third case of money laundering in which investigation is going on against Vadra, is related to a land deal in Bikaner. In this case, the ED had also questioned him and his mother Maorn before. Vadra appeared before the agency in Delhi on Wednesday for the second consecutive day to record his statement in the 2008 land deal in Shikohpur, Haryana. He told reporters that the matter is inspired by “political vengeance” against him and his family. He claimed that the people of the country “do not trust the investigating agencies.” Vadra said that they have always collaborated with the investigating agencies.
