Anil Deshmukh, who was summoned to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office on Monday skipped appearing at the investigation agency's office again.
Former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh wrote to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) regarding the ongoing investigation against him and alleged that the probe is not transparent and the department is "hell-bent" on creating "adverse impression and prejudices" against him. Anil Deshmukh, who was summoned to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office on Monday skipped appearing at the investigation agency's office again. He wrote a letter to Enforcement Directorate (ED) Assistant Director Tassine Sultan to inform him that he has approached the Supreme Court in the matter to ensure that the investigation against him is within the ambit of the procedure established by law. This is the third time the NCP leader has skipped the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) summons in the case. "A series of events have given rise to a bonafide apprehension in my mind that neither the procedure of law is being followed nor any objective, impartial or transparent investigations are being carried out. Therefore, I am approaching the Court (Supreme Court) for safeguarding and protecting my fundamental rights and to also ensure that the investigations are aboveboard and within the ambit of the procedure established by law," Anil Deshmukh said in the letter.
