Karnataka Pradesh Congress Comittee (KPCC) President D K Shivakumar appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) here today in connection with probe related to his assets.
"Today I am appearing before the ED officials for enquiry. I don't know about the details. What ever they ask I will answer. I have no hesitation," Shivakumar told media before entering the ED office here.
Sources in the ED said that they are probing a case related to disproportionate assets against him. The CBI also probing same case.
Last month a special court in Delhi had granted regular bail to Shivakumar and other four accused in connection with money laundering case.
Based on an Income Tax probe, the ED registered a Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case against Shivakumar in 2018 and he was arrested by the agency on September 3, 2019, before the Delhi High Court ordered his release from the Tihar jail on bail on October 23, 2019. In July this year, the ED filed a charge sheet against accused persons.
Earlier, the ED said a money laundering case was registered against Shivakumar after Rs 8.59 crore cash was seized from his Safdarjung Enclave apartment.
