ED summons Robert Vadra for questioning in land deal case

New Delhi, Apr 21 (PTI) The Enforcement Directorate has summoned Robert Vadra, businessman and brother-in-law of Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, for questioning on Tuesday in a land deal-linked money laundering case, official sources said.

Vadra, 56, was first summoned in this case on April 8 but he did not depose.

The probe against Vadra, whose wife Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is the Congress MP from Kerala's Wayanad, is linked to a land deal in Haryana's Shikohpur.

Once he appears before the ED, the agency will record his statement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), the sources said.
