He has been summoned by the ED in connection with a money laundering case linked to the Mumbai underworld, officials told news agency PTI.
Amid an escalating war of words between Maharashtra's Maha Vikas Agadhi government and the Centre, the state's minister Nawab Malik was taken to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office this morning for questioning. The central probe agency's officials reached the NCP leader's home at 6 am where he was questioned for an hour. He was then brought to the ED office at 7:30 am and is being questioned there since 8:30 am.
Mr Malik has been summoned by the ED in connection with a money laundering case linked to the Mumbai underworld, officials told news agency PTI.
Two weeks back, Mr Malik had hit out at the Centre for trying to topple the state government and said the Nationalist Congress Party, Congress and Shiv Sena will not only continue to govern Maharashtra but will also come to power at the Centre by dislodging the BJP.
