ED summons TMC leader Mahua Moitra on Feb 19 for questioning in FEMA case
Moitra is also under investigation by the CBI, which is conducting a preliminary inquiry into allegations referred by the Lokpal
The Enforcement Directorate on Thursday summoned Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra to appear before the agency on February 19 for questioning in the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) contravention case.
Moitra is also under investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which is conducting a preliminary inquiry into allegations referred by the Lokpal.
BJP MP Nishikant Dubey accused Moitra of targeting the Adani Group and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Lok Sabha questions, allegedly at the behest of businessman Darshan Hiranandani in exchange for gifts. He further accused her of compromising national security for monetary gains.
In December, on this issue, the TMC leader was expelled from the Lok Sabha over the issue.
Moitra has consistently denied any wrongdoing, asserting that she is being targeted for questioning the deals of the Adani Group.
