Tejashwi Yadav appeared before the probe agency a day after his father and RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav was questioned for nearly ten hours by the central agency in the same case.
Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav has left the Enforcement Directorate office after he was questioned for eight hours in the probe agency's money laundering probe into the alleged land-for-jobs scam. He appeared before the probe agency a day after his father and RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav was questioned for nearly ten hours by the central agency in the same case.
The former deputy chief minister of Bihar arrived the Enforcement Directorate or ED office around 11.35 am amid heavy security deployment and a large number of RJD members and supporters who raised slogans in support of Tejashwi Yadav.
The alleged scam pertains to the period when Mr Yadav was the railway minister in the UPA-1 government. It is alleged that from 2004 to 2009, several people were appointed to Group "D" positions in various zones of the Indian Railways for which they transferred their land to the family members of the then railway minister Lalu Yadav and a linked company named AK Infosystems Private Limited as bribes.
