Former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Saturday skipped the summons issued to him by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a money laundering case. Mr. Deshmukh’s lawyer sought more time to appear before the agency. Earlier in the day, the central investigation agency arrested Mr. Deshmukh’s personal assistant Kundan Shinde and his former personal secretary Sanjeev Palande. Both were called by the agency for questioning on Friday. They were arrested a little after midnight, around 1 a.m. Both will be presented in front of the court where the ED will seek their custody for further probe. According to sources within the ED, a new summons will be issued and Mr. Deshmukh will be called for interrogation next week.More Related News
