NEW DELHI: The Enforcement Directorate on Monday issued fresh summons to businessman Robert Vadra in money laundering case linked to UK-based arms consultant Sanjay Bhandari, PTI reported citing official sources.The 56-year-old was summoned for questioning on June 10 but did not appear, citing flu-like symptoms that began on June 9 and stating that he had taken a Covid test in line with protocol.He has been summoned to appear before the federal investigative agency on June 17 to record his statement in connection with the case being probed under PMLA.Vadra was questioned in April over a separate money laundering case linked to a 2008 Haryana land deal. He is currently under investigation in three such cases. Meanwhile, arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari, who fled to London in 2016 after an Income Tax raid, is unlikely to be extradited after a UK court rejected India’s plea to appeal his discharge. The ED’s 2023 chargesheet claims Bhandari bought and renovated a London property in 2009 using funds allegedly provided by Vadra.Vadra has denied involvement calling it a “political witch hunt” saying that he was being “hounded and harassed” to subserve political ends.
