ED summons business partner of Raj CM's son for questioning


New Delhi, Jul 23 (IANS): Amid political crisis in Rajasthan, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday issued fresh summons to the business partner of Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot's son Vaibhav Gehlot in a money laundering case.

Investor Ratan Kant Sharma, close aide of Vaibhav Gehlot, Ashok Gehlot's son, has been asked to appear before the agency sleuths no Monday in Jaipur.

Sharma had allegedly received around Rs 96.7 crore from Mauritius and has stakes in Hotel Fairmont.

The ED last week carried out searches at the Fairmont Hotel in Jaipur in connection with the case.

Sharma was summoned by the ED two days ago, however, he did not join the probe.

The agency suspects that large scale overseas transactions have taken place.

The Income Tax department had also summoned Sharma earlier last week for questioning.

    CA fraternity of Hindustan are the number one QABARI's(informers); in fact they are the one who structure such deals... to comply with laws of the land, and they only know how it can be penitrate to file charges..

    Ironically more than 95,% of CA's are politically loyal to the present ruling dispensation, else charges will haunt them also...!!!!

    Lord Brahma knows the truth and reality very well....,

    While...
    Jokers remain jokers,
    Chaiwala's remain Chaiwala's,
    Chowkidara's remain chowkidara's
    Etc.,

    First it was the CM Gehlot, next his brother and now the business partners son.

    The BJP has become a shameless party with no Principles or Ethics.

    While the country is grappling with a serious Pandemic, the central Govt is busy targeting opposition leaders with threats of action by the central enforcement agencies. The CBI as Supreme Court once remarked is a caged parrot.

    This is the Ugly face of Modi's Maan Ki Baat and his innocent pretentions behind TV cameras in his repeated address to the nation. No doubt he has not addressed a Single Press Conference in the last six years so that he need not be confronted with his accountability on all issues concerning the country and its people.

    All those in the BJP who have a Conscience and Love for our country should Resign from the BJP to save our country so that this Witch Hunt and Vendetta Politics against opposition parties and leaders can end and the country can concentrate on real issues facing the Nation.

    Persecution starts.

    This is BJP trend. You cause hurdles on their path, they will place boulders on you way.

    Modi hai to mumkin hai. Vote for BJP again, again, and again. One day it will come to your self, then you will now but by then it will be too late.
